Artist Statement:
I am a self-taught artist who
paints mainly in acrylics, and
occasionally in oils. From my
studio, I produce paintings
that express my intense
interest in color and light.
My artwork has given me
contentment and joy since
retiring from accounting. I
believe I have inherited a
natural talent from my mother
and my great-uncle Adolphus
Burton who was a college art
teacher and oil painter in
British Columbia.
I mainly work with acrylic
paints although some of my
works are produced in oils.
Painting on stretched canvas
is my favorite but I also
enjoy painting on masonite
panels because of their
incredible smooth surface. My
main goal as an artist is just
to have the viewer enjoy my
paintings as I am not trying
to impart any social or
religious beliefs or make a
statement of any kind. I
paint life as I would like it
to be and in vivid color.
Painting is an intense passion
and when the mood strikes I
can often be found in my
studio in the wee hours of the
morning, with my faithful
chihuahua curled up in his
basket nearby. At times I
will produce several works all
at once.
