I am from Montebello, in the Petite-Nation area of the Outaouais, and my first exhibition in 1975 was of oil paintings in Ste-Agathe-des-Monts (in the Laurentides). Returning to painting in 1994, I concentrated exclusively on watercolours. I have perfected my art by participating in workshops led by recognized masters from the Société canadienne de l’aquarelle. My watercolours are executed in a figurative style, playing with shade and light and capturing the emotion of the moment.
I offer watercolour workshops for small groups. I participate in many exhibitions and symposia in Québec. My work is exhibited in public places and in galleries.
I am a member of the Aylmer Arts Council, the Ottawa Watercolour Society and Le Circle des Artistes Peintres et Sculpteurs de Quebec.
