Influences: The long, arduous road of life would have to have been my biggest influence....the things that life brings. Other artists that have inspired me: Bono and U2, Eva Cassidy, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Rich Mullins, Jars of Clay. Locally in the music scene, my biggest influences would have to be Jim Cameron, a very talented guy, and Doug Erickson, who's no longer here, but he's here in our hearts for sure...
As far as visual arts, I was motivated to start painting after seeing a DVD of Joni Mitchell's where she showed a display of her paintings. I knew it was in me to paint, but I had only "painted in my head" up until that point....so, dozens of paintings later, i'm hooked...my paintings have found good homes across Western Canada, as well as 2 in India....
Sounds Like: According to quite a few people, I apparently sound a lot like Suzanne Vega...I can kinda see it. Also, a little like Shawn Colvin.
