'lived mental health experienced and low vision finger paint artist.'

Welcome to my portfolio. I'm a Canadian finger paint artist living with low vision and over 30 years of lived experience with mental health. Much of my work is shaped by this journey, and I see my art as a form of therapy—both personal and expressive. I began as a cartoonist, but nearly a decade ago, I transitioned to finger painting, partly due to vision challenges and a difficult period in my life. Unable to afford quality brushes, I began using my hands, flinging paint as a raw, honest way to release emotion. I painted what I felt—and I still do.
