This is a collection of fine art and digital illustration. Some are commissioned, the others are passion projects.

True Love.

In 2023, my brother and his long-term partner decided to celebrate their commitment to each other. My gift to honour them and their beautiful day was this painting. The animal spirits carry a personal connection to both individuals. The blueberries represent the northern Ontario communities that they both have ties to. The nine flowers are for Treaty 9, and the 7 energy orbs carry the knowledge of the 7 Grandfathers.

CCFN Hand Painted Drum.

The logo and symbol of the Treaty 9 First Nation band, the Chapleau Cree, has long been represented by the Northern Loon. In this image, the loon carries forward the knowledge and teachings of the Seven Grandfathers. This drum was created to honour the support this community has provided me throughout my education and my career.

The Trusting Creek.

In collaboration with the Plan Group’s We Care Inclusion and Belonging Committee, I was honoured to help mark their land acknowledgement presentation with this painting that honours the land and the original peoples of Mississauga. The artwork is exhibited alongside the formal Land Acknowledgement, a powerful reminder of the Plan Group’s dedication to collaborating with Indigenous communities as allies. Compensation for my time on this project was provided in the form of a monetary donation to truenorthaid.ca, a registered charity dedicated to ensuring access to clean drinking water for Indigenous communities across Ontario.
