Education and Training

 

In 1995, I returned to studies at the University of Victoria after a lapse of 30 years. I completed a BA in History of Art, with a focus on architecture, June 2001. One course I completed was FA225.

For one assignment I produced a web page on The Art and Architecture of Samuel Maclure. I plan to enlarge the coverage to include more of Victoria's architects as I have time.

EDUCATION: Bachelor of Arts (with distinction), History in Art, University of Victoria, 2001
