Drawing and Painting

“My work channels the photographic authority, nostalgia and the graphic power of black and white images in order to ask critical questions about media, relationships, power and Canadian identity. I have expressed some of these through my various series presented here, "Ahead By A Century", "Fighting Myself", "Meetings", and "The Climate of Untruth".
