Artist Statement
During the years of 2015 to 2024 I have done a drawing a day that has hatched a large number of silly bird cartoons which has taken over 3000 days of my life. Without meaning to, and much to my surprise, I became a cartoonist. I share this craziness via my Wednesday Smile postings on social media and with my annual submissions to Positively Petite.
Yet, the cartoons are only a small part of my artistic practice as I continue to let myself expand and swivel with colour, image and expression.
