Artist Kim Clark tells us, painting takes me to a quiet place, and allows me to get in touch with my true self. Clark works primarily in acrylic, as the quick drying time allows quick working to capitalize on mood and flow of the piece. Recent work has been based on a love for books and wood which incorporates birch bark and book pages.

Our #tbt this week is Karlene Bland who was the featured artist of our 20th exhibit, which was on display from March-July 2016. Artist statement: My first training was as an accountant/auditor but I later picked painting up as a hobby which then turned into my full-time obsession. I so love encapsulating encounters with the beauty of nature or people and children, to be remembered and relived with pleasure at another time, be it now or generations to come. Use of vivid color...s is the language I employ to express the mood of my subject matters which I find way more stimulating to paint from life's observations. Manipulating with paint and textures in the studio is just as exciting and exploratory, allowing my imagination to play itself out. I would love to help you recreate your special moments and memories of loved ones, vacations, encounters and life-events. https://www.karleneblandfineart.com/ View the rest of exhibit 20 on our website: https://www.artintheworkplace.ca/exhibits-qreserve
