Art on the Trent — Trenton, Ontario
There is something powerful about seeing your work outdoors, where sky and water become part of the gallery. This spring, two of my paintings were selected for Art on the Trent, a public exhibition in Trenton, Ontario, situated along the historic Trent–Severn Waterway. The installation brings Indigenous artwork into the everyday rhythm of the community. People encounter it while walking, cycling, fishing, or simply passing through. No ticket. No quiet white walls. Just art me

A Seat at the Table — and an Invitation to Stand Together
Today was a meaningful day in my journey as an artist. I had the opportunity to speak on television about my work and the recent acquisition of my painting into the Government of Canada Art Collection. Sitting in that studio, I was reminded that this moment was never just about recognition. It was about responsibility. It was about using art to open doors for conversation, connection, and community. My work is grounded in the concept of Two-Eyed Seeing, a teaching shared by E

Part of the permanent Canadian Collection
Today marks a meaningful milestone in my journey as an artist. This morning I shipped two of my paintings to Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada. Knowing that work created in my studio here in Belleville will now live within a national institution is something I don’t take lightly. For many years I simply worked — quietly, consistently, often without knowing who was watching or where the work might eventually land. Moments like this remind me that persisten

New ideas, same signature style
Lately, I’ve been allowing myself to follow ideas that feel simple and honest — the kind that arrive without force. These recent paintings came from that place. They hold the same visual language I’ve built over time: bold line work, saturated colour, rhythmic marks, and symbolic elements drawn from land, body, and presence. What’s different is the entry point. These works aren’t trying to explain themselves. They’re simply being. One piece captures stillness and reflection,

Testimonial from a collectors
We absolutely love the beautiful portrait Angela painted of our dog who recently passed away. The painting perfectly captured his being and it’s been placed in a special spot in our home to see him every day. Thank you Angela for creating such a meaningful work of art!” Dale and Paul M. I love this We don’t talk enough about the role animals play in our lives. They witness us without language. They hold our routines, our grief, our joy, our quiet. When they leave, the absenc

🌙 Stepping Into Wonder: My First One Of A Kind Show This December 2–7, I’ll be stepping into something truly extraordinary — my very first Toronto One Of A Kind Show, celebrating its 50th anniversary.
