Interview by Jimon<\/p>\n

1. Where do you currently reside and paint?\u00a0<\/strong> I currently reside in the Pacific Northwest in the state of Oregon. I paint in my private on-site studio.<\/p>\n

2. At what age did you start painting? And how did it all start?\u00a0 <\/strong>I started painting in my early 20\u2019s as a way to express my way out of winter isolation living in a remote mountain town in Canada, it really all started there.<\/p>\n

3. Do you remember the first piece of art that captured your imagination? <\/strong>The first piece of art that captured my imagination was a handmade card presented to me by my elder sister of twelve years. She illustrated a simple botanical illustration in black ink and added the tiniest spots of color. I was so smitten, it was so simple and beautiful. I remember how meaningful it was. I was maybe five years old.
