Living a simple rural life provides me with daily offerings which always inform my paintings. Paint has no limitations for me, offering me the simplicity I require in my life and it’s a way of being within the quiet. For me the land represents a simple life, quiet stillness, a moment in time and the ever changing. I have dedicated my days to exploring through paint my relationship with the natural world.
My studio is comfortably nestled into the loft of an 1860’s Victorian gothic farmhouse overlooking my surroundings. I live my days immersed in the quiet rhythms of nature and the beauty found within moments of presence. My husband Brandon Steen also an artist and our English bull terriers Dolores and Paddy live just outside the quaint little village of Warkworth in Trent Hills, Ontario.
