I’m a recent escapee from forced creativity. And I never would have known I was a photographer or a designer if I hadn’t quit my job and gone for a walk. I credit Vancouver, to an atomic and botanic level, for helping me become what I mean to be—a creator of beautiful things that people will covet and cherish.
And I can’t stop creating. I’ve got an idea for Kits Beach Mirrors: Weird-shaped, hand-gilded, and embellished with gold-dipped sea shells [collection III, if I can crack the secret of lucite]. And a Vancouver kimono—my images printed on silk and mixed with other gorgeous fabrics and sewn into something you’ll have on your body every chance you get.

In between collections I’d like to design and distribute a new line of postcards for Vancouver [summer 07]. I’d also love to see my images on banners all over this luscious city of ours. And if a girl can dream, during the Olympics would be nice. And someday soon, I want a little shop of my own—floating off Granville Island on a glass houseboat.
If you can help with any of this, please do call.
