I have had the privilege of living and painting here in southern Alberta all of my adult life. I have an immense love of the prairies and the Western way of life. In my younger years I had the privilege of owning and training horses and they are a frequent subject of my artwork. The […]

This exhibition considers “doors, or thresholds”, that offer both an entrance and an exit; a portal to transition from one world into another. What does the world beyond the door offer? What are we leaving behind as we go through the portal? Are we escaping, or simply seeking further exploration? This concept has a broad […]

Because of this, I often focus on everyday subjects, highlighting parts of the day and surroundings often overlooked.

My work embodies an intimate connection with geological ecosystems, encouraging the idea of coexisting with the natural world rather than dominating it. Through painted narratives and utopic imaginings in which hierarchical structures do not exist, my work dismantles the notion that women and nature are inherently chaotic and in need of control.

My work delves into the multifaceted identity of a contemporary Blackfoot individual, weaving together narratives from our creation stories, Kutoyis stories, our history of conflict, and the contemporary challenges we face. I’m deeply rooted in the Blackfoot […]
