Julia Veenstra (@jveenstraartist) is a vibrant and impressionistic painter. She strives to capture a moment that brings comfort to the viewer. Working as a studio artist, she creates large-format paintings that capture the imagination. Her paintings “draw a viewer in, they make an impression and cause joy”. Her paintings are a study of colour, light, and shape. Beautiful negative space is important and her strokes are fresh and vigorous.

Julia studied Illustration at Sheridan College and has lived in four countries. Her work is collected around the world and she is carried by galleries across Canada from Montreal to Kelowna. 

For years, Julia dreamed of illustrating "There Was a Thing Inside My Shoe", a story written by her daughter Rachel Cuthill in grade 6. Rachel, now a high school teacher and mother of two sweet boys, loves imagining, dancing, and reading with her children. With the help of Rachel’s son Amos, who inspired the design of the mysterious "What," Julia finally brought the book to life, turning their shared dream into reality.

The “Look At Those Cows” was a love for cows that started when Julia was in college and got to go to the Royal Winter Fair to sketch. Rachel loved cows from childhood and the expression “Look At Those Cows” was often heard as they drove through the countryside. The cow book was initially sponsored by the Ontario Dairy Farmers and they put a copy in each public school in Ontario.

Johanne Brouillette (@johannebrouilletteart) is an abstract painter who is known for her thick multilayered paintings that hint at the textures and palettes of the Canadian landscape while allowing open-ended narratives for the viewer to fill in.
She is a jury-elected member of the Society of Canadian Artists and the Federation of Canadian Artists. 

Johanne's abstract paintings have been included in over 80 regional, national, and international juried exhibits and have been awarded several prizes. Her work is represented in galleries and both private and corporate collections worldwide.
