Cape Breton Island. Special thanks to my Island. My website is a tribute to Cape Breton Island.

Visitors to my site will discover the wonder and beauty of our Island that influences all my

artistic endeavors. Every day I am inspired by the Atlantic ocean with its crashing waves,

soaring eagles, sea gulls and aquatic sea life. The vast limitless horizon of the ocean is a

visual reminder of everyone’s’ ability to explore and achieve their potential.
