Born & bred in Montreal, Canada with dreams of living abroad, I am drawn towards old buildings & ancient woodlands; the remnants of a bygone world, whispering witnesses to our lost past; these historic places inspire me to evoke their beauty through my creativity. As an old soul trapped in a modern world, there is nothing more gratifying to me than exploring the backroads where I can completely absorb my surroundings while capturing their timeless auras as graphic representations, to then offer viewers a form of contemplative escapism... Obsessed with Ancient Buildings & Historic Locations Disciple of Art & Architecture, Gardens & Graphics, Books & Bakeries... Endeavouring to experience enriching exploration through discovery, Inspiring works to then share as imaginative imagery of remarkable places. formal education: Creative Arts & Architectural Technology FACE high school DAWSON college MTC Montreal Technical College autodidact: Architectural Design & Restoration, Sculpture & Casting Illustration & Graphics, Photography, Literature founder: www.archytexture.com NEWS September 22-October 30, 2022 Gallea Group Exhibit: "Reinvented Worlds" Symmetricks: "Montresor" series Montreal, Quebec @ Espace Gallea www.gallea.ca/en/exhibitions/exhibitors/espace-gallea September 3-23, 2022 Siran Art Group Exhibit curated works by Jane Darling: Symmetricks: "Dordogne 16" series Siran, France @ L'Ancienne Forge www.siranart.com May 11-22, 2022 CAPIC Group Exhibit: "Xposé 2022" "Home is Where the Art is" Toronto, Ontario @ The Papermill Gallery scotiabankcontactphoto.com/2022/open-call/capic-xpose-2022 www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/history-art-culture/museums/todmorden-mills/ May 6-21, 2022 WASM Group Exhibit: "Chrysalis" "Buddha Arthropod" Montreal, Quebec @ Gora Gallery www.womensartsociety.com www.gallerygora.com *** December 2021-February 2022 Gala Awards Exhibition Julia Margaret Cameron/Digital Manipulation "Montresor" Series Barcelona, Spain @ FotoNostrum www.fotonostrum.com November 2021 IGPOTY #15 Portfolio Shortlist "Enchanting Eyrignac" www.igpoty.com May 2021 16th Julia Margaret Cameron Awards Honourable Mention Loire: Montrésor Digital Manipulation Series www.thegalaawards.com/16th-jmca-cell-phone-to-digital-manipulation-collage April 21-25, 2021 WASM Group Exhibit: "Kaleidoscope" "If Trees Could Talk..."
