BIOGRAPHY
I live on a self-built coastal off-grid island homestead, with boat access only. My daily life, writing and artworks are inspired by the wilderness of islands and inlets of the BC Coast, a variety of wildlife such as whales and marine mammals, and the creative resourceful people who live here.
