For many years, my dedication was to printmaking: intaglio, silkscreen and lithography. I studied at Montreal Museum of Fine Art, School of Art & Design and later went on to study Fine Art and Art Education, at University. My main interest was silkscreen, a technique which I practiced for many years. Now, I am working with natural dyes and Shibori techniques.

My customers have described my naturally dyed items (scarves, daypacks, tunics), as delicate, eye-catching and desirable.
