Studio visits by appointment 🗓️

Sometimes the studio is messy, not just with pain Sometimes the studio is messy,  not just with paint, but with expectations.⁠
⁠
Not every piece turns out the way I imagine, and that’s okay. The moments of frustration, the “wrong” marks -  they’re all part of the process. ⁠
⁠
They teach, shift, and guide the work in ways I can’t plan.⁠
⁠
The messy parts are where the magic often happens.⁠

Pathways is a body of work that traces movement: t Pathways is a body of work that traces movement: the routes we take through landscape, through relationships, and within ourselves. ⁠
⁠
Some paths are familiar, some are newly carved, some we return to again and again.⁠
⁠
These pieces hold those explorations - sometimes dancing forward, sometimes pausing, sometimes beginning again.⁠
⁠
Works that record the exploration of new pathways.⁠

As I prepare for the next chapter, I wanted to sha As I prepare for the next chapter, I wanted to share a little tour of my studio, a space that has held so much of my work, my process, and my heart over the years.⁠
⁠
It feels only fitting to give a glimpse now, before my departure in May. This studio has been such a meaningful place to create. ⁠
⁠
On that note, a reminder that my ✨ Studio Sale ✨ is happening Saturday, March 21st from 1 - 4 PM (Mergatroid Building, Red Door Studio). ⁠
⁠
I’ll be opening the doors for a special sale of furniture & supplies ONLY (artwork not included) & all proceeds will be going to youth arts organizations! ⁠

Looking across my body of work, I’ve noticed a thr Looking across my body of work, I’ve noticed a thread that keeps appearing - these rounded, full brushstrokes that swoop across the surfaces of my pieces.⁠
⁠
Texture, colour, and scale may shift, but these gestures keep returning, like a signature of movement and rhythm that threads everything together. ⁠
⁠
It’s funny how the same mark can feel new each time, yet somehow feel like “me.”⁠

I recently slipped away for a short yoga retreat, I recently slipped away for a short yoga retreat, a few days in the sun to rest, reset, and breathe a little deeper before returning home with fresh eyes. ⁠
⁠
And since being back, I’ve been really settling in. Walking more. Looking longer. Letting the West Coast light, the mountains, and the ocean sink in.⁠
⁠
There’s something about knowing change is ahead that sharpens the present moment. I’m soaking up all that BC has to offer - the beauty, the community, the quiet inspiration that’s always been here.⁠
⁠
Such a gift. Thank you for being part of it.
