Born in Brantford, Ontario and resident of the Toronto
area since 1963. Exhibiting professionally since 1980. Longstanding,
elected member of The Ontario Society of Artists and The Canadian Society
of Painters in Watercolour. Represented in many corporate and public
collections.
EDUCATION
B.Sc. 1966, University of
Toronto
The evolution of my style has been achieved
largely through self-development and constant exploration. The early
period included study with prominent Canadian artists at Art Sake (Toronto),

and Seneca College (Ontario).
