Angela Fehr
Angela Fehr is a watercolour painter who lives in Northern British Columbia. Here is a quote from her website that best describes her perspective on the medium.
”Landscape painting is not about showing where I live, but how I engage with the world around me and how I find myself in it.
My art is created by water; as a watercolorist I marry water with color to create my work, understanding that I am working alongside a medium that must be allowed to flow, to evolve and my responses are as immediate as the flick of a brush. Any original intention must be released if the painting turns in a new direction, and this brings me into a relationship and intimacy with my chosen medium that is dangerously vulnerable and continually new.”

Ishita Banerjee
Ishita Banerjee’s art is an assimilation of her life experiences. Inspired by human interactions, emotions, and feelings, Ishita merges imagination and memory to create vivid and bold paintings, rendered in strong color, motifs and details. Threading lines, textures and markings, the inter-connections of both tangible and abstract forms tell the story of the passage of time
The unconstrained Cubist style deeply inspires Ishita, by breaking free of traditional rules, and the role of interpretational abstracts that are as transient as our feelings.
