ABOUT FLOATING ISLANDS STUDIO
WHO

I am a painter who shares a studio with my partner and fellow painter, Tad Suzuki. We paint, build, and design. I am a member of the Gage Gallery Arts Collective.

Our studio is high atop a cliff above Montague Harbour on Galiano Island, BC. We overlook what I call the floating islands. I acknowledge with respect that the land that I live on and paint is the traditional territory of at least 13 Indigenous peoples who have shared a deep relationship with the land since time immemorial.

Painting is my way of paying homage to the beauty of this land where I am a grateful but uninvited guest.
