I demonstrate my passion for innovation, creativity and design in my work. Shades of Nature stems from the piece of nature I include in my designs. I believe the most important part of my work is cultivating my eye for design, and my imagination to explore.

I live in a log home surrounded by trees and wildlife, in Nelson B.C. The studio has sliding doors that step out into the forest.
For inspiration and stimulation of ideas I created a large collage of architectural and natural images on the interior studio wall. A large chalkboard is always at hand to sketch concepts.
My partner, Ray, provides wonderful support. My daughter, Chantal, has also begun to embark upon her own carreer in business.
