That about sums up my life.  What a ride it's been! 

Welcome to a little piece of my life.  Here you will find some of the paintings I have created over the past years. 

As I say in the title "life happens when you make other plans" for me this has been my life. You just never know what is in store for you when you think you have it all together.

I took my first art course at age 13, at one of the local high schools in Kitchener, Ontario, for the cost of $10. (the pumpkin painting on this page)

I'm glad I kept two paintings I made from that era, to remind me how it all started.  They are found in the gallery near the end.
