My Work
My work aims to honour and celebrate the multi-faceted mysterious, gorgeous, stupendous creative event called life on planet earth.
I have come to see the various ways I express this awe, support my family and engage with community as a constellation. There are many interrelated pieces coming together to shape my days as a working artist and mother. Below are a few key points in the constellation and avenues in which we could work together.
Workshops + Events
I host screen making and printing workshops for the community at local events, for school groups and organizations, at festivals and private parties. Here you can see upcoming workshops I am hosting, and you can learn more about hiring me to facilitate a workshop for your group or event.
Stencils + Paintings
View my large collection of handcut stencils, screen prints and paintings I have created over the years. The central theme to my current body of work is kinship and the radical inter-connection of all beings. Both my paintings and stencils are my way of exploring and celebrating the wild creatively of planet earth.
Installations
My work has been installed in galleries, at festivals, community events, weddings, and sacred grounds. Their energy transforms the spaces they inhabit and carries their stories forth into the world. If you are interested in hiring me as an installation artist please visit this page.

Everything begins with lighting a candle and making a prayer.
Media
Spirit Matters were a series of gatherings, held in Toronto, that created circles where Indigenous wisdom keepers from many places connected with social justice leaders, students, artists, and healers. In this episode, I talk with Eimear O’Neill about how she and her late husband Ed O’Sullivan convened these gatherings, working in partnership with indigenous peoples to restore connections with land, people, spirit, and ancestors. We follow the story of how Hazel Bell Koski, a young artist, found her way to this home for her spirit that she had been hungry for. Hazel shares how the mentorship of Ed and Eimear and the Spirit Matter experiences inspired her to create PrayerStream, a community art project. June 8, 2023.
