NANCY PERRON Nancy Perron a 30 years old originally from the costal village of Grand-Anse in upper New Brunswick came to Saint John in 1999 and started a family. Nancy loved what Saint John brings to her when it comes to inspirations and material she can work with. Nancy has always had interest into photography and painting, touched a bit of everything but her heart is set on watercolors, "I love to immortalize nature as well as architecture at its best and like to explore angles with different lights and seasons. My inspiration for paintings are drawn from everyday life, and from a range of emotions which I like to reveal in my art". Links to Nancy's portfolio are included below.

Saint Vincent's High School in 2001 and went on to attend the New Brunswick

Sheri Lynn (Burhoe) Larsen Artist Statement: I'm a Canadian artist and art coordinator for the annual Hampton Canada Day Art Festival. Allowing myself to work freely is how I produce the expressive works that I do. I have been drawn especially to artists Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh, Marc Chagall, Degas and Klimt. I have had the pleasure of viewing each of these artists works in person, at the National Art Gallery in Ottawa during the summer of 2008. I work in expressionism style using acrylics, oils, charcoal, ink, pastels and mixed media on many surfaces. You can find my work internationally in private and public spaces. In New Brunswick, Canada at Sessions Cafe located in the town of Rothesay and in St. George at Gillmor's Coach House Gallery.

Vassilakos just moved to Saint John from Montreal. He has been visiting the
city frequently over the last 4 years, and finally decided to move here. Pete
says "Saint John is a wonderful city, and exactly what I have been looking for

prosper. Here is the link to his web site:

A Newer Look! Here is a new entry from an old one, David Hook one of our first entries to the local artist forum, submitted a drawing he created of uptown Saint John 3 years ago at the age of 16 and all done with MS Paint and a Mouse! Well I've just recently heard from David and he thought we'd enjoy the new look to an old look. Well as usual David has not disappointed us, take a look at the updated version and judge for your self, I'm sure you'll agree.
We hit the Jack Pot with our next entry, "Art on the Edge" is a wonderful expression of art from the youth of our city. The main collection of art is from the waterfront area of the city but as you travel through the city you'll see they have left no stone unturned when it comes to finding canvas for their art.
Our next entry is from
Dave Strickland who just recently settled in Saint John from Quebec City.
Dave's is original from Windsor, Ont. Dave preference is for wildlife and
animal portraits. Although the majority of his work is done in oil, the acrylic
medium is slowly taking up more and more space in his
work.
I think the art community
is finally getting the hint, these postings are FREE!
