is an artist living in Toronto, Canada.
I am an artist living and working in Toronto, Canada. Please contact me if you would like to make a purchase. My larger work is also available through Canvas gallery.
​
I work in oil and acrylic paint, and explore different techniques such as collage and etching. I find inspiration in the complexity and silent expansiveness of the landscape. Recently I've been exploring colour, composition and mark-making through abstract paintings inspired by my daily collage project.
​
Since 2018 I've been regularly posting collages to Instagram and X. This started as a daily practice where I could explore a looser approach to image making, and play with shapes, colour and texture in an intuitive way. I'm also interested in how technology shapes our images and sense of place, and in 2021 I realized that I had accumulated a huge dataset of images to explore Generative Adversarial Networks.
​
You can check out the Digital Twin Project on X where I experiment with the recent computational developments in Artificial [un]Intelligence with a GAN that generates collage images based on my own hand-made collages.
Thanks for your time and attention!
