Relocation: Toronto

In December of last year, I sold my house and studio in Kitchener where I had been living for the last 4 years, and moved to Toronto.  Over the years I have had many people make the trip to see me in my studio (you can see photos of my old space under the studio category); hopefully being in Toronto will now be more convenient for everyone. As an artist, I'm excited to be closer to more art galleries and museums and the urban life of a bigger city. Who knows what new inspirations and paintings will come from my new surroundings?!
