Originally from Southern Ontario, Hayley studied Fine Art at the Ontario College of Art and Design. Upon completing her degree in 2008 she travelled west, lured first by the ocean to Tofino and later by the mountains to BC’s Interior. Currently based between Revelstoke, BC and Baja California Sur, MX, Hayley is still immersed & inspired by mountain & surf culture.

 

Experiencing the sublimity of nature and participating in mind-expanding activities which engage the body and free the mind are the foundation of her work.  Her most recent paintings - vivid atypical landscapes - highlight nature's intricacies with a bold palette, smooth colour blending and concise brushstrokes.  

 

Painting allows Hayley to leap the barriers of language and share the abundance of inspiration she feels when immersed in nature. The mountains & ocean are her continuing education.
