I describe my work by way of two influences, two traditions – indigenous and Taoist. Synthesizing a natural tendency for simplicity and form. Since the early 80’s my work on paper and tempera has reflected a playful tendency. Oil pastel, like childrens crayons engage a playful need. The work presented depicts care for the oceans and dearly important species needing protection, As example the salmon and birds of Bowen island, British Columbia. Living a coastal climate in a temperate rain forest offers a close look at current concerns. These large drawings are set on gold tempera as earth is the only source for nourishment and the keeping of standards. The Salmon, Birds, Whales are viewed returning - as symbol for renewal and collective care. Bowen Island, British Columbia.
