Cellular Seizure Deb Lacativa
I combine my love of color and abstract painting with a continuing exploration of the possibilities of
fiber art. Although the viewers are discouraged from handling the art, I want them to ache to touch it.
Everything I make is about exciting the eye and engaging the viewer with the tactile draw of cloth and
the drama of the colors and shapes that hint at mystery, magic and sometimes the sly grin.

Symphony in a Mountain Landscape Richard Lamartine
For the past several years I have been concentrating on sculptural forms, in particular creating raku masks and other ceramic sculpture including altered, hand built vases that incorporate animal and human forms. My predominant theme is an exploration of the animal human relationship and its divergence in modern times. Philosophically man has separated himself from nature. It is my belief that this split that has caused so much grief in our global outlook. Masks bridge this ideological split by connecting the wearer with the imagery and symbolism of the natural world. In the case of my masks, although they are not meant to be worn, they still conjure this union. It is my intent that the magic and symbolism of these masks subtly involve the viewer in an altered consciousness that will lead to healing the rift between man and nature.

Gone Fishing Julie Lamons
Julie has enjoyed painting for several years, and now wants to share the joy of painting with others.She can only express how she feels when she is working with her paints 'How does one explain the moment of knowing something came together on canvas making it art? It has never ceased to be a joyful journey for me to take the paints and canvas and a new idea and watch them begin to work together and come to life. Time stops, hunger is forgotten, the only thing that has any sense of reality is creating art.'

Karina Lapierre-Douglas
Karina Lapierre-Douglas' artist listing: Over the years, my fascination with antique photographs has grown. No matter what I am going through in life, there is an old photo out there that, if scrutinized enough, can somehow mirror my situation back to me. It is almost like a conversation with ghosts. With the Internet, the entire world's old family photos are now available for me to sift through and identify with, and present back to the viewer through a new lens and a new memory.

Me and my shadow Odette LaRoche
Odette LaRoche's artist statement: Being an artist at heart from a very young age I was always drawn to any form of art. Painting began for me more seriously in the sixties. The children were young and I had time at home. Unfortunately the painting had to wait while the family grew up. I kept on painting on and off time permitting and was mostly self taught. In the fall of 1999 I found myself on Vancouver Island and enrolled at Victoria College of Art. This was an enlightening experience which bought me up to date in the art world. Colour and composition are most intriguing to me. The application of colours that meld and excite each other is very appealing especially when they mix optically to create a new hue. Use of large canvas surfaces allows the viewer to physically enter into an experience. Passion is provoked in me by nature's various, sometimes violent, cloud displays is portrayed through colours, shapes, intensity, and mark making evidenced in the painting as in the many mysteries of nature's daily dramas. In contrasting subject matter I find that figure painting, whether it is a dancer or a posing model, is very gratifying. Facial studies reach deep into the soul and psychology of the person. People's faces are wonderful and have always attracted me.
Graduated from Victoria College of Art in 2002 and exhibits in two shows or so each year since. The opportunity to open an art gallery in Sidney came my way and I took it. It has given me a great deal of pleasure and opportunity stay involved in the arts. It is a pleasure to meet and promote other artists through the gallery. Every August the gallery puts on a "Paint Out" for artists to compete in outdoor painting and for the public to appreciate and perhaps purchase at the end of the day. Also I am a juried member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, Vancouver Chapter. Many of my paintings are in private collections in Canada, U.S. and Europe.

Palms Over El Moro
oil on panel Greg LaRock
'Making it look realistic, yet having a completely loose, painterly feel is the ultimate goal in a successful painting' – Greg LaRock
In 2004, Greg decided to rekindle his love for figure and landscape painting and the pursuit of plein air. 'Capturing light and atmosphere on canvas is a challenging, life-long pursuit. My goal is to attain the delicate balance of color and composition with light and shadow.' A member of several art clubs and groups, you’ll find him at most club paint outs capturing the light in the Southern California landscape. 'Any excuse to get out to paint and I’m there.' In 2006 Greg has been invited to Joan Irvine Smith's Capistrano Valley Plein Air Art Festival, Sonoma Plein Air 2006.

Holland Memories Lyn Lasneski
Let Beauty Have It's Say.
Simone Weil was absolutely right: beauty and affliction are the only two things that can pierce our hearts. Because this is true, we must have a measure of beauty in our lives proportionate to our affliction. No... more. Much more.
Our experience of beauty transcends our ability to speak about it, its magic lies beyond the power of words. I hope to paint some of beauty’s healing power, of it's comfort and soothing, how it stirs us, how it moves and inspires. Beauty is pure gift...perhaps that is why it is so healing.

Energy Edith Lassiat
Abstract and sensual approach, my work is a link between oriental and occidental cultures. Through the use of mixed media like inks, oils, and collages, I developp my own singular world of humour and poetry… My influences scale from Van Eyck in term of construction, to Rothko for use of large empty spaces and Chinese calligraphs for the energy and peace of my gesture.

Bette Laughy
Bette enjoys creating images of nature, people and animals. She works mainly in watercolours and acrylics, with some work in graphite and oils. She feels each image speaks to her and dictates the medium. Most of her work is realistic, but she experiments with abstract work occasionally. She has a background in music, writing and teaching as well as visual work, and has found similar design principles apply throughout all media.

Lyn Lauts
My strongest pieces are painted from an intuitive state of mind, supported by a foundation built on a classical study of art and history. For the most part, I paint in the tradition of what I call "Expressive Realism". Whether the subject is figurative, still life, landscape or abstract, I approach the canvas first with a gentle probing inquiry into my subject, and finish with directness and eagerness to express the Truth I have found.

My hope is that you may also find some felt connection to it.

Watching You, Watching Me Dyan Law
Dyan Law spends most days painting with oils and pastels. Pure colors are placed boldly in the initial stage of her painting. When dry, Dyan applies translucent glazes of 'living' colors that seem to rise and fall in their intensity. Influenced by the color theories of the early Realists and Impressionists, she paints intuitively with 'meditative' strokes to reveal intrinsic colors, similar to the way an x-ray reveals bone structure unseen by the naked eye.
