I am a First Nation artist and a member of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation band, currently living in Kitchener, Ontario. I work in a variety of styles and use a mix of hand-drawn and computer-generated illustrations. Influenced by the beauty of nature and the classic Canadian landscape, and memories of my childhood living on Scugog Island, my illustrations evoke a sense of fun, and something familiar that reminds us of a more innocent age but from a new perspective.
