Tania Craan

admin — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 04:46:18 +0000

Tania Craan is a Toronto painter who works in acrylic and encaustic. For the past two years she has focused exclusively in encaustic. It is an extremely versatile medium that can be both sculptural and painterly.

Exploring the idea of “contrast” has been a work in progress in Tania’s painting. Introducing unlikely concepts, techniques, and materials to a painting aids to heighten their effect by distinguishing their differences.

Susie Colomvakos

admin — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 00:31:07 +0000

I have studied painting at the Toronto School of Art and the Avenue Road Art School. I prefer to paint in oil and also paint in acrylic. I have experimented with encaustic painting.

My entree into painting began 6 years ago while I was dealing with cancer treatments. I thought it would be a good way to help me relax, stay focused and discover my creativity.

It is my daily life experience that influences and informs what is captured through my painting process and the product of my work. Until recently, I thought it was the painting process that most connected me to Spirit. However, I’m now appreciating a new relationship with the work by reflecting on my finished pieces and discovering an even deeper communication to the expressions of my soul.

Shawna Eberle

admin — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 00:27:12 +0000

Eberle’s recent photographs consist of tiny fragments of the frozen landscape collected in order to explore their fragile nature. Isolated against a clear background, details transition to abstraction.

Born in Brisbane, Australia, Eberle was raised in British Columbia, Canada. Since graduating in Fine Arts from Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, B.C., Eberle’s focus was on classical portraiture before turning to landscape as her inspiration. Eberle has exhibited at locations such as DeLeon White, BCE Place and the Canadian Sculpture Society. Currently, she lives and works in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I am an acrylic painter, originally from the US Midwest, who now lives in Toronto with my husband and two children. I’ve practiced as a registered nurse since 1980. I always knew I had inherited some artistic ability from my mother, who is an accomplished china painter in Iowa, so I began to actively investigate painting as a creative outlet almost 4 years ago. I started taking acrylic painting class at the Avenue Road Arts School in the Spring of 2006 from veteran Toronto artist & teacher, Martha Johnson, and haven’t looked back. I was invited to become a member of Ensemble, a group of Toronto painters linked together through their association with Martha Johnson, and we had our debut show in March 2008.

Whether it be picking up a pencil, a piece of vine charcoal, cutting up a magazine, or sticking my fingers in paint just to smear my emotions on a canvas. Art has always been an outlet for me.

I studied Creative Arts, however I left it for a career in the graphic communications field. I now spend my days in front of a computer in an office. Although I still use my creativity at work, it is at night and on the weekends when I’m in front of a canvas that I once again remember the passion of when I picked up my first Crayola crayon.

I have been painting for about 15 years. I started out with watercolours and in the past few years have been painting with acrylics. I have been in a few shows but mostly paint for personal reasons. I am self taught but have taken a few week courses. This summer I started some art classes with women in Muskoka. I love to paint and a few of my friends and I get together weekly during the winter and spend an afternoon painting.
