My Story ' 

I spent my early years in Copenhagen, Denmark in the '60's, and moved to Canada at the age of ten.  I have been drawing, painting and creating for as long as I can remember, and eventually completed my BFA with a focus on painting, photography and sculpture.

Following some years of jubilation, contemplation, and at times, painful soul searching, I realized that I needed to use my creativity as a means to raise awareness of the world around me, and the greater good.

Through my art, I want to 'give back' some of what the universe has so graciously given to me.

As a painter, I gravitate to vibrant colors and intense contrasts. 

I focus on intuitively putting together my thoughts and inspirations, always allowing for those 'little accidents' that will set the work apart.  

I strive to relay a message of living with passion and conviction, and the power of human connectedness. 

With this intention in mind, many of the works in the galleries are dedicated to a variety of causes close to my heart. 

My art is only truly resolved when I am able to initiate a 'ripple' in the waters of life.

I welcome your thoughts. 

 In peace, Tina.
