"I studied painting and sculpture at Emily Carr/Vancouver School of Art in the 1970's, mainly producing large abstracts in oils or acrylic and later went on to study Architecture. My interests as an artist and designer over the past years have focused on combining architecture and the human figure, in both abstract and representative modes - the creative interaction of figure, context and perception."
