Canadian artist with a main focus on impressionist painting and fine art pictorialist photography. Having practiced painting and photography since childhood, Roberta borrowed ideas learned through the fibre arts in expressing the story or mood. Her style evolved to an impressionistic one that tries to capture the spirit of place more so than a factual representation. Her works in both mediums are evocative, existing in a state of familiarity for many. There is a romantic softness inherent in the work that nurtures a connection with the poetic side of nature.
