Rural Manitoba, as we know is vital and thriving. It is renowned for its wildlife habitats, wetlands and beautiful landscapes. Rural Manitoba is the place to be, as proven by the people who live, work, and engage in activities throughout the province.

Drawing in pencil is something I am passionate about as an artist because of its complexity of techniques, but it’s not always for its simplicity. The ability to show depth, contrast, highlights, and shade with a single color requires dedication. Graphite pencils are a favorite of mine because they enable me to be more creative in my inner self.

Artists can work with acrylics as one of the most versatile painting media. To create impasto effects, they can either be applied thick or thinned. The artist can overlay the colors quickly because they dry quickly.

I thrive on the challenge of creating “Composite Pictures.” By combining various and unique elements on paper or canvas, I capture a complete and transparent image that conveys a general sense, history, or message.
