Betty L. Fahlman

A graduate of the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design Betty is a painter that likes working on texture. Many of her works are done on plastered board. This surface takes acrylic paint well and it can also be carved into easily. The images Betty paints are from the area she lives in or from places she's visited.

Visits to the Betty L Fahlman Studio in Nakusp can be arranged through email or a phone call.

Watercolours - Rick Foulger

The inspiration for my art imagery is the unparalleled beauty and rugged terrain of British Columbia. Mountain spires draped in deep snow and glaciers. Valleys that are squeezed between majestic mountains and ribboned throughout are hiking trails and climbing routes. These access the peaks and gladed valleys that I use to gain the unique vistas and vantage points seen in my watercolour paintings.

Two Pillars - Cindy Collins

Two Pillars
Painting - Acrylic on Canvas,
24" by 36"

Artists Statement: I have painted and drawn all of my life. I have given up working as a jewellery designer,  and have been concentrating on painting the last 4 years. I still enjoy beautiful lines and try to instill some of the excitement I feel from nature. This particular painting was done in the Valhalla mountains and is part of a series of "groundscapes". At the present time I am working on a series of paintings of my dog and cats.

Fushia - Krista Stovel

Fushia
Digital Art

"Fushia" is part of a series on plants and flowers from Revelstoke based digital artist, Krista Stovel.

Despite the intense beauty of the mountains that surround Revelstoke, her interest lies not in the grandness of the landscape, but in the lines and textures of nature's smallest details, from the velvet petals of a lily, to a leaf found on the ground after the snow has melted, its skeletal beauty as fine as lace.

Sculpture - David Sidley

Seeker of Visions

Seeker Of Visions
1985 Bronze casting

My paintings and sculptures are inspired by North American Indian rock art (pictographs & petroglyphs), usually of pre-white contact origin.  This work has developed from a life long personal admiration and fascination toward Native American culture and religion.

This is a very pure art form and reflects the Native Americans' oneness with nature.  Exploring this art form in a contemporary manner is my way to approach the culture as it was.

Fibre Art - Kathleen Hill

Hand-felted wool, silk

Kathleen Hill is a fibre artist working predominantly in felt in her home studio.

The human figure and the natural world offer imagery that she explores in large felt wall-hangings.  These often incorporate other materials such as silk & yarn.

Not content to warm just walls, she also has designed a series of unique felt rugs and promoted the idea of "art for your floor" by teaching workshops in the making of  floor cloths.
