I would like to Thank the significant people in my life who have started, supported and helped fuel my art career. The most important people are My Dad - who introduced me to art, without him, I would not be where I am today.   My Mom - who always has supported me in every decision I have ever made unconditionally   My Daughter Jasmine - who is the most inspiring, talented and creative person I know. Jasmine is a singer songwriter, and an incredible guitar player. She amazes me with her ability to create the most emotional beautiful emo-rock songs I have ever heard. She has been signed by a small record company in Calgary, and is being developed as we speak. Watching her perform takes my breathe away. Her gift for creating and performing these beautiful songs astounds me, its hard to believe that someone so young could have such a gift. Jasmine has finished high school now, and has moved out with her boyfriend and is now creating a life for herself. I am so proud of her!! I will post some of her songs sometime in the future, and even a video, if I am allowed.   Avenida Art Gallery and Manager Charmaine Pratt- Avenida has been one of the most supportive galleries I have ever worked with. They have been instrumental in the expansion of my career thus far. With three locations and the clientele this business has already developed, has helped me receive the exposure I need and with the art shows that they have put on for me, have helped my career immensely. The owners are wonderful people and I am blessed to be part of their artists' roster. Charmaine Pratt, manager of the Eau Claire Market location has been a tremendous support to me, and believes in me as an artist, and I feel honoured and very lucky to have connected with her on this wonderful artful journey.   My clients who have purchased my art - without you, painting would not be possible. A thank you to all of you because you may not realize how important you are to me! Thank you for supporting the arts!!
