About Me / A propos de moi
I have been an artist all my life. As a young teenager, I was already exploring drawing and painting from the live model. I held my first show for family and friends when I was 16! I studied Graphic Design in college but I ended up owning a flower nursery! Fast forward a few years, and I now have had the freedom to paint full time. Watercolour, oils, and pigment sticks are my medium of choice. My best work is done alla prima, either en plein air, or fresh with the inspiration of my surroundings. I can often be found stopped at the side of the road, photographing or sketching something I have observed. My studio is in Montreal, but I have a travel box which comes with me wherever I go. I'm happiest when painting from nature. Each and every brush stroke is part of the message, and when it's right, I know it's time to share it with you!
Je suis née a Montréal et j'ai grandi dans les Laurentides. Des ma jeune adolescence, j'ai été initiée au dessin de modele vivant . J'ai étudié le Graphisme au college, mais aimant mieux la nature que le bureau, j'ai finalement travaillé dans les fleurs ou je me suis retrouvée. Plusieurs années ont passé, et je peux dorénavant me consacrer a ma peinture bien-aimée. L'aquarelle, l'huile, et les batons de pigments sont mes matériaux de choix. Mon atelier est a Montréal, mais mon bonheur c'est de travailler sur le site, de me retrouver au bord de l'eau ou en campagne avec ma boite de peintures et mon chevalet portable. Je tente de capter la lumiere avec mes pinceaux et quand le message est clair pour moi, je suis prete a partager avec vous!

Description from Merchant:
My fine art prints are printed using state-of-the-art, professional inkjet printers and premium photo paper and canvas, and will last a lifetime when displayed in normal conditions. Prints can be ordered unframed or framed. Unframed prints will be shipped securely in a rigid mailer or shipping tube. Framed prints are assembled by a professional framer using archival matboards, solid wood frames, and UV-resistant, anti-glare glass. Canvas gallery wraps are printed and stretched over a wooden stretcher frame, and finished with a clear topcoat for added protection and durability. Metal prints are reproduced on rigid Chromaluxe aluminum panels, and mounted with a wood float block on the back for hanging. The image is infused into the metal using a dye sublimation process, resulting in a visually stunning, sleek, modern piece of art. Acrylic prints are reproduced using an inkjet process on Epson photo paper. The print is then mounted to a 1/4" piece of acrylic, with a ⅛” PVC backing. Canvas gallery wraps, metal prints, and acrylic prints do not need to be framed, as all of these come ready-to-hang with hardware installed. For more information about prints and the ordering process, please visit my FAQ page or contact me. Les reproductions faites à partir de mes oeuvres sont imprimées en haute-résolution en utilisant des imprimantes a jet d’encre des plus performantes.
