My paintings tie into the theme of Seafaring through the subjects of my still lifes: objects relevant to rural culture, specifically my hometown of Memramcook in the region overlooking the Chocolate River, and tasks typically fulfilled by women in the 18th century.

​

Through my work, I draw on the cultural references of the local area and the practices and art forms passed down through the generations by the matriarchs. By focusing on tasks typically performed by women, such as gardening, sewing, cooking, and caring for the home and animals, I draw attention to how the "woman's role" has evolved over time, while at the same time paying homage to them.
