Thanks go out to the Chief and Council of Komoks First Nation for giving us permission to go on their land to paint. The first picture was a bonus for those of us who got there early:
Vancouver Island artist Marilyn Timms has achieved great things with her stunning watercolour paintings - many done en plein air (outdoors). Turning away from painting works that are simply descriptive, Timms looks for a deeper connection between herself and the painting, using her art to tell stories of her life connections.
Some of her achievements include the Barse Miller Award from the American
Watercolor Society (AWS) in New York City, full signature memberships in both the
Federation of Canadian Artists (SFCA) and the Society of Canadian Artists
(SCA) in Ontario.
