I am a Canadian photographer, grandmother, and a naturalist who walked the trails of Edmontonโ€™s beautiful river valley with school children. I also hiked the Rocky Mountains, where I developed a genuine love of nature. I promote this love by sharing natureโ€™s beauty. I reside in Stony Plain, Alberta, Canada.

Writing goes back a ways before an encounter with Julia Cameronโ€™s book,
โ€œThe Artistโ€™s Way.โ€ Following her wise advice, I decided to register in a writing class. The class was being taught by a published author, Esther Supernault! We quickly became great friends. Being a photographer, she asked me if I could do a photo shoot of fairies and I accepted, not knowing at the time that I would be co-authoring that book a few years later.
When she asked, I gratefully accepted the honour and for me, WIND WALKER was the beginning of a magical journeyโ€ฆa dream come trueโ€ฆI felt that I qualified since for 4 years, I had the pleasure of working with children at the John Janzen Center. As a naturalist, I had led groups of children and their teachers, caregivers, pre-schoolers to grade 6โ€™s on nature walks in the beautiful river valley of Edmonton, Alberta.
At one point I had considered the option of politics, I realized that I would reach and influence more people at a very tender age by writing therefore educating them. Esther and I, laughed, cried and wrote (not necessarily in that order but as it was needed). I hope to instil a love of nature, which leads to respect of nature and the environment. That is the simplest answer to the issues we are facingโ€ฆask the children, they will honestly tell you, without all the masks and agendas of adults!

I am a self-taught nature photographer for over 40 years. I have lived 70 years plus and gained understanding from hiking, gardening and living.
I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. That counts as a degree of qualification, in my view. I live in the moment and observeโ€ฆtry it. I also know when to close the door and rest when needed.
