Technique : Oil
Although a graduate of McGill University, businesswoman and entrepreneur, a love of painting led to years of study at Saiyde Bronfman Art Centre with artists Seymour Segal, the late Philip Iverson, and mostly Marilyn Rubenstein. In 1998, after joining Galerie Beauchamp, painting became a full-time career.
Colour, motion, emotion and expression, these all inspire me when I paint. Oil is my favourite medium but I have used acrylic as an underpainting on occasion and will often use oil sticks. I will even use my fingers to push the paint - whatever works!
