Margaret Foreman
Panel #228
“Adams River Sockeye”
acrylic
Although Margaret has had no formal art training, she took up painting with the same passion that has become a trademark of her life. Margaret's enthusiasm and joie de vivre are evident in acrylic paintings that reflect a unique impressionistic style and convey a feeling of warmth through the use of vibrant colours.
A large source of Margaret's inspiration has come from her many travels throughout the world, especially France, Italy, and New Zealand. Her work is influenced by the impressionist painters and especially Tom Thomson of the group of seven. Margaret's work can be found in many corporate and private collections in Canada, USA, and New Zealand.

Michael King
“Ebb and Flow”
acrylic
Panel #201
Michael King is from a small town in central Alberta. His interest in art began with drawing and wood carving at an early age with painting becoming his “all consuming” passion.
Michael studied industrial design at Carleton University in Ottawa and pursued a career as a product designer, living and working for a brief time in Japan before establishing his design firm in Vancouver. Currently he chooses to focus on plein air painting as it provides a deeper challenge.
He now resides in Port Coquitlam with his wife and two beautiful daughters, where he paints in pastels and oils. His work appears in private collections throughout Canada, and he has been fortunate to win awards in a variety of exhibitions and competitions.

Jeane Krabbendam
Panel #194
Safe Harbour
acrylics/ graphite / water colour pencil / mixed media
Jeanne was born in The Netherlands and immigrated to Vancouver in 1999. After receiving formal training in the European art tradition in The Netherlands and France, Jeanne began painting in series. Working in themes allows her to explore a concept and, in this way, the process of creation is by itself a journey; a voyage through ideas, composition, texture and colour. The artist’ vision is to get as close as she can to the story she wants to share. The artist often uses mixed techniques in her art work.
Jeanne has extensive exhibit experience both national and international. In addition to pieces that have been commissioned by individuals and corporations, a great deal of her work is sold at exhibits. Over the years many of her paintings have found homes in Europe, North - and South America, Australia, South-Africa, China and Japan

Carla Maskall
“West Coast Spawning Salmon”
acrylic
Panel #24
I was born in Ontario into a family of artists and was encouraged to paint and draw from a very young age. Later raised in Kelowna B.C., I had the privilege of attending private lessons with various local artists. From 1988 to 1990, I studied Fine Arts at Kwantlen College and then transferred to the University of British Columbia where I obtained a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Nursing. Over the years I have remained an active painter participating in local art groups, shows and workshops. I currently reside in White Rock B.C. with my husband and three daughters, and am a frequent visitor to Saltspring Island. My paintings are primarily done in acrylics and the subject matter is mostly figurative and landscapes.
My background as a nurse has given me a sensitivity towards humanity that I hope to portray through my figurative and portrait paintings.
I have a passion for studying nature and enjoy spending time in the outdoors. The colors, forms, light and the textures in nature inspire my landscape paintings. In our busy world, my goal is to give the viewer pause for reflection to appreciate the beauty and humanity that surrounds us every day.

Sher Nasser
“July Sunset”
acrylic
Panel #32
Born on the spice island of Zanzibar, surrounded by the Indian Ocean, Sher Nasser spent her formative years around the beautiful coastlines of East Africa. Inspired by the gorgeous vistas surrounding her, Sher's interest in drawing started early, however, it was not until many years later, and having moved to Canada, that Sher discovered the joyful world of painting.
"When I first arrived in Canada I was immediately fascinated with the effects of light and shadow that the September sun was creating. I am gifted with a strong love of nature and seeing the wonderful variety of colors that each season brings, I felt a strong inspiration to try and capture those radiant colors on my canvas".
Excelling in floral watercolors, Sher also creates breathtaking landscapes, still-lives and life-like portraits in a variety of media.
Living in British Columbia, Sher is an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, Port Moody Arts Association and the Art Focus Group.
