Diane creates vibrant mixed media paintings bursting with bold colour and intricate pattern. Working primarily with acrylic paint, Diane layers in her self made gelli press  papers to create texture and one of a kind detail..    Some of her favourite subjects evoke expansive quilt-like landscapes and maps for imaginary explorers. 

Diane is a life long painter.  She has studied with the late Franklin (Archie) Arbuckle, OSA, RCA, in Killarney, Ontario, Kato Wake at Baxter Arts Centre in Bloomfield and online, and at the Haliburton School of Art and Design. A former member of the Willowdale Group of Artists, she was awarded “Honorable Mention” at a juried show by the late and distinguished artist/juror Doris McCarthy.
