Diane began her career as a studio potter creating “functional sculpture” or “abstract ware” ie: funky & useful!
A passion for color led Diane to paint. She is trained in mural design, decorative wall treatment, acrylic on a variety of surfaces, colored pencil drawing, pastel, water color and digital painting.
At 46, Diane earned a degree in Classical Animation and Digital Flash Animation. She has continued to further her education with courses in comic book art, and fine tuning her drawing and painting skills.
She is currently working on having her illustrative work published in children's books.

Diane divides her time between the beautiful Okanagan Valley, Canada and her newly adopted homeland Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. She shares her life with husband and best friend, Gord, a comical golden retriever named Willow and Buddy the cat. 4 grown children and 5 grandchildren make her world complete!
