SUSTAINABILITY
I source supplies for creating my products close to home (like down the road at a local mill). All materials are from and support Canadian companies, and my artwork is printed right here in Northern Ontario. Ever since I won an award in the third grade for starting a recycling program at our school I have been an environmentalist and as such, aim to have my products packaged in a way that does not harm the environment. In my studio I recycle, reuse, and chose packaging and shipping materials that are as eco-friendly as possible.
