Michael Abraham

Born in Montreal (1965), Michael Abraham began his studies in life drawing and compositional painting at the Ontario College of Art (1984-88).  In his fourth year of OCA he was awarded the top figure drawing award.  He was teacher’s assistant during a year of postgraduate education in Florence, Italy (1990-91). At that time his studio was located in Piazza San Marco, in Florence, with a wealth of art and history to study and enjoy!  Abraham has been painting full time since 1992.  He travels to see art often, including two months spent in New York in the fall of 2005.

Other than the odd crisis of mind, he enjoys music, food, fitness, piano playing, weekly figure drawing, nature and a happy family life. He currently lives and creates in Ladner, British Columbia.

Art is a reflection of life... all things at once, and ever changing.  Each creation is a snapshot of the mind in time.

Jan Rankin

Born in Toronto, Canada, artist Jan Rankin began painting just over 5 years ago. Fortunately, there is a community art gallery near her home and this was where she sold her first painting, a large colourful floral titled “Born to Be Wild”. Her work is known to be bold, colourful, often highly textured and occasionally embellished with stones, crystals or other surprises.

Jan has had a variety of experiences before becoming a painter and holds a degree in Social Work from the University of British Columbia. Currently, Jan lives, loves and plays in Ladner, BC with her husband George and 3 black cats. They share 4 grown sons.

Willing to experiment and continuously trying new and different approaches with acrylics and mixed media enables Jan to express her love of colour and texture.

Working from her studio in Tsawwassen, British Columbia, Kathy has exhibited in numerous private and group shows in the Lower Mainland since 1988.  Her work is included in private collections across Canada, the United States, and abroad.

Shirley Maurice

Shirley Maurice works in encaustics.… what is it?

Encaustics is an amazingly versatile and durable artists’ paint that has been in use for centuries. Encaustic Painting involves using heated beeswax medium to which colour pigments have been added.

Its application goes for beyond as it can be used to paint, it can be incised, collaged, carved, scraped, glazed, rubbed and is perfect for mark making. There are unlimited ways to create images and diverse surfaces. The allure of the results is captivating - simple and complex at the same time. The possibilities are truly endless.

I love encaustic art. Encaustic art is painting with a beeswax medium, as well as coloured beeswax for painting.
