Laurie O’Reilly – I am a painter, a story teller, a photographer, and a mixed media artist. My newer work is about process as well as content, requiring a degree of ‘construction’ to complete each piece. As an artist I have photomontaged, cut and pasted my work, I have created paper clay supports, sewn into painted canvas, reassembled pieces and found objects into new statements, and layered, glued and screwed, onto wooden panels.

Dave Skinner – I have self-published three novels in the Warriors, Heroes, and Demons series, and one in a new series called Wizard’s Spawn.

My name is Jacqueline Kimberly Morin. I’m a self-taught artist who has played with acrylic paint and brushes all my life. Since launching my full-time career as an artist in 2018, I have participated in various juried shows, including the Society of Canadian Artists. My first paddle creation was published in a magazine article and this was the inspirational event that kicked my artistic career forward.

My subject matter and medium may vary since I paint what catches my eye and makes me smile. The more I explores, the more my mind flows with ideas. My passion truly lies in ‘The Art of Creating’. Each day brings new memories and feelings that recharges my passion to keep painting!

Wendy captures the light and space within the landscape creating a feeling of place and time in her paintings. She is drawn to the linear structure of the landscape, long sloping planes or high rocky cliffs.

Wendy is a self-trained artist with a drafting background who works in acrylics. In her late 20s she started painting in oils, took some lessons in watercolour and soon after discovered liquid acrylics. “They move like watercolour but give me the vibrancy of an oil. I am able to paint the little details.”

“I explore imagery in all it’s wonder, strongly inspired by organic elements, a unifying theme of texture is present throughout my work. I enjoy using a variety of mediums and processes; moving away from strictly digital photography I practice film photography, printmaking, jewellery, digital collage, fibre art, metal art and more”
