~Gallery Fundraiser now closed, thank you to all contributed and supported! Stay tuned for future fundraisers! ~

All proceeds from the sale of prints will go to the Hornby Island Conservancy for their work to protect the last remaining herring spawn on BC’s coast.  Herring lies at the heart of the coastal food web and coastal First Nation subsistence and culture, yet overfishing by the commercial sac roe fishery has led to massive declines, leaving only one viable (yet dwindling) spawn centred around Hornby and Denman Islands.  Bringing herring back from the brink could make a huge difference in restoring health and resilience to coastal ecosystems and communities.

As part of my practice of improvisation, I often employ DIY methods to make art. I have been making prints of fish, using commonly available natural materials, e.g., leftover coffee or vegetables. Unlike industrial inks, organic liquids are free, and they also give depth to the surface of the image.
