Sheila Rae Van Delft (@sheila.rae.vandelft.art) holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Arts, is a member of several local artist organizations, and loves teaching high school Art part-time. She grew up in the wilds of Northern BC, and all she’s ever wanted to do was draw and paint. 

Sheila spends a lot of time wandering the coast, mountains, and rainforests of BC taking lots of photos that inspire her landscape paintings. She also lives in the country surrounded by trees, fields, and gardens, with wildlife literally walking up onto her deck, so it’s no wonder she loves to paint the natural world, God’s stunning creation. 

She is excited to be painting again for this great show and can’t wait to see what her fellow artists create!

Sarah Hayek (@thegrumpybrush) is a self-taught artist who works with oil paint on canvas. Her love of visual arts has led her to acquire a university degree in Cinematography. 

Over the last 10 years she has developed and fine-tuned her style in order to convey more depth and emotion. She has practiced with all kinds of mediums, including but not limited to watercolor, graphite, acrylic and ink. After a period of exploration, her interest fell on oil paint, which represents to her the ideal way for self-expression. 

She fluctuates between still-lives and landscapes to create colorful and vibrant oil paintings influenced by contemporary impressionism. She finds solace in her creations and artwork which in turn help her reconnect with nature and guide her through her journey of self-discovery, self-recovery and self-fulfillment.

Characterized by bold strokes and vibrant colours, Sara Mullen's (@saraalexmullen) work reinterprets classic Canadian landscapes in a contemporary fashion. With intuition guiding her colour choices and composition, Sara paints loosely from photographs and impressions from her travels across North America. She utilizes brushes, palette knives, and carving tools, painting alla prima, to maximize texture and create energy in her work.

Sabine Kearns (@sabinekearns.art) was born in South Africa, and moved to Canada in 1997 with her young family. She lives in the small, seaside community of Hunts Point on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, where she works from her home studio. She is a self taught artist and enjoys painting in acrylics using vibrant colours and clean lines. 

Sabine loves nature, and one of her favourite pastimes is to find inspiration in beautiful hidden coves and white sand beaches, wildflower fields and old barns, or craggy cliffs and sheltered harbours. 

Sabine says: “My art is happy art, that reflects my peaceful life.  It’s a privilege to create something that brings joy to others, and I hope that through my art I can make someone smile, and maybe help make the world a little brighter.”
