My Story
Somewhere between Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers my little self envisioned being an artist. It wasn’t a choice but more of a cosmic assignment, creativity and wonderment chose me.
I dreamed of going to art school since before I fully understood what that meant but life had detours. I studied a year at Alberta University of the Arts in the early 1990's and it was as magical as I had imagined. My husbands career took priority and I became a mom twice. Not finishing my degree was like walking with my shoes untied. In between domestic obligations I worked in creative fields as a visual artist, arts facilitator and graphic designer.
In 2022, at the age of 56, after many grief experiences I started working on my BFA again with the goal of doing a Master’s in Art Therapy. I’m currently in my 3rd year studying Print Making, Photography, Art History, Indigenous studies and Creative Writing.
Stationery: note cards
I’ve had a love affair with paper for most of my life. When I was young, I’d fold sheets in half and make a drawing on the front with crayons. My family in the Maritimes were often the recipients of my creations. When I became a painter I learned to digitize my work and print cards that were always popular at sales and helped supplement my career.
I’m no stranger to mental health and addiction, both myself and those close to me. I’m tired of the long standing stigma and silence so I developed a line of greeting cards to open doors and create conversation. Gentle Health Ink. is dedicated to changing the narrative about living with a sensitive nervous system.
