​​I have always turned to nature when I needed grounding — to find perspective or to connect to something bigger and wiser than myself. Long before I picked up a brush, the natural world was already teaching me how to heal.

​

Years ago, a single phone call changed the direction of my life. A stranger's voice on a crisis line reflected back something I had never allowed myself to see. In that moment, I understood I had been living inside a story that wasn't mine to carry. It's a label I now wear with pride - survivor — not because of what happened, but because of everything I built after.

​​

What came after was nature.

Then paint.

Then the understanding that beauty doesn't exist in spite of change — it comes from it.

​

Each painting in this exhibition carries a chapter of that journey.

​

Beauty of Change

The first place in which I felt safe enough to be fully myself.

​

Reconnection

A piece I created after losing my mother; what I found when I was quiet enough to look.

​

Change in Perspective

A moment that brought me fully into the present and reminded me how far I had come.

​

Each piece carries a QR code linked to a narrated story — my voice, telling the moment it came from.

The painting is only half of it.  The other half is the feeling it evokes in you.

​

Not a collection of paintings,
but a living archive of what it means to come back to yourself.

Brewsmith Brewery — Bowness

Peaces of Me

May 11- August 17,  2026​

This summer I'm bringing Peaces of Me to Brewsmith Brewery in the heart of Bowness — a neighbourhood that has always felt like home to me.

​

Three prints are on display, each paired with a QR code that unlocks the audio story behind the piece. Because sometimes a painting carries more than what you can see.

​

Prints and the full collection can be explored through my website. A portion of every sale from this exhibit supports FearIsNotLove — an organization close to my heart that I'm honoured to support through this showing.

I'll also be at Brewsmith on June 2nd from 6–8 p.m. for a casual meet-the-artist evening, and would love to see you there.

​

If you find yourself in Bowness, come in, have a pint, and stay awhile.

Rooftop Concert 
July 25, 2026​

Art Under the Stars: Rooftop Concert for Not In My City Calgary Marriott Downtown Hotel

On a summer evening at the Calgary Marriott Downtown Hotel, six pieces from my Peaces of Me collection — three original paintings and three framed prints — joined a rooftop concert in support of Not In My City, a Calgary-based organization working to end sexual exploitation and human trafficking.

There was no booth, no sales table — just the work, set among the crowd, each piece carrying its usual QR-coded audio story. Guests moved between songs and paintings, scanning codes to hear the memory behind each one. Twenty percent of every sale that evening went directly to Not In My City.

It was the first time this collection met an audience outside a gallery or storefront — paintings, music, and a shared cause, sharing the same rooftop.

Marriott Exhibition 

August 1, 2026 - October 1, 2027

Select works from my Peaces of Me collection are on public display at the Calgary Marriott Downtown Hotel, accessible through Calgary's +15 skywalk network. Each piece carries a QR code linking to a narrated audio story, so anyone passing through can pause, scan, and hear the story behind the painting. The work is available for purchase — the code also links to current pricing and options. Twenty percent of any sale from this exhibit supports Not In My City — a partnership that builds on the hotel's own history with the organization, which hosted a Not In My City awareness campaign in 2023.

This is where Peaces of Me lives now — the newest space carrying these stories into the world.
