JOURNEY SERIES

Some of these paintings originated out of a trip to South Africa with my mother, Kathy. I was born in Africa and left when I was 4 1/2 so this was my first trip back in over 50 years.

We walked on vast dunes, explored beaches with extraordinary rock formations and we saw vast expanses of land leading to ranges of mountains folding in on each other in blues, pinks and mauves. The sun has risen on this landscape for thousands, millions of years with the mountains over time turning eventually into incredible pyramids of rubble. In the desert we stood under skies immensely dark and full of stars. It made me feel very insignificant but equally significant, because I felt a part of it. It was a time of reflection in a place of great quietness and peace.

LANDSCAPE SERIES

Nature is my teacher in so many ways. There is a stillness and a strength when I stand amongst the trees. What I learn from listening about the wisdom and beauty in nature, fills me with awe and gratitude. I find an experience in nature inspiring me and I begin a piece. They are like meditations for me, often layers of paintings moving through emotions to come to the place I’m taken to.

All works are graphite and acrylic and/or acrylic works on canvas.

Actually, it surpassed my expectations. Not only did we learn about lots of great ideas to take back to school, we also got to experiment with everything (making it more meaningful, fun, and memorable). Great day.. great experience. You are wonderful. Great location. Well organized, The day zoomed by!

Angela Prosser

Awesome session...best PD in a long time. Great coffee. Great vibe.

John Pottle

Bravo Darren! You were a great and gentle teacher. Excellent atmosphere! A skill not easily perfected but certainly enjoyable to attempt. I can see why one gets "hooked". Very relaxing....

Shova Dhar

Darren - Thanks, great carving class! Learned a lot about the tools, layout and carving technique. The course provides a great start

Bruce Matson

Bruce Matson

Darren was a humorous, helpful and highly talented teacher. The workshop was great fun. Heck,he even shared his lunch. Awesome. I would have liked another 5 days.

Catherine Harrop

Everything about this place has been the best thing I've been to in a while! From the projects to the people ..it has all been great!

Phil Hutchings

had a great time and learned a lot and I hope to use the experience as much as I can in the future. Thank you very much.

Bob Van der Laan

It was an enjoyable 6 class. Lots was learned. Each night was filled with laughter, fun and good carving. Darren is a Hoot! Always in good spirit and very helpful with his guiding eye and suggestions.

Barbara Cornelis

Nice "control" over the class. We're all art teachers and can be the worst students. It's tough to get a class of teachers to pay attention and settle down. I'd love to come here for every personal development day instead of other district presentations. The activities were great and I can see me using them in my classroom. I would like to have more of these classes offered to all teachers in the district who teach art.

Cathie Wilson

Thanks Kathy & Sue for opening your home and your studio to us. It was a complete pleasure. To be here while "Blooming Artists" was happening was an added joy. To have the public dropping by, along with all the artists, created an amazing sense of creativity. The workshop exceeded my expectations.

David Levangie

The best part was trying everything out ourselves, not only will I remember it better but it is good to be in the kids shoes, to know what the experience may be like for them. And to free myself up creatively, get rid of my inhibitions.

Andrea Sabean

The class has been totally enjoyable and absorbing. I really have never had time go so quickly. Your teaching is great - a good pace and gives a glimpse into how much there is to drawing. The classes more than met my expectation

Diane Peacock

This was a fantastic morning. Old techniques I've used where given a new twist. Thank you so much for this great day. I hope to be back again soon to learn a whole lot more.

Julia Barrowman

Very relaxed atmosphere - helped me not to be so fearful and intimidated.
Exploring the various mediums and surfaces helped/encouraged me to further explore my creativity.The classes most definitely met my expectations.

Jane Bourque-Grenbec

What a wonderful room to create in - beautiful surroundings. Excellent teaching ideas by Kathy Hooper. "Spirit Awakening" - have the need to do more "art". Felt I had "real experiences that will work for me."

Brenda O'Leary

Wonderful weekend! Trudy was a great instructor. There is certainly a reason why she has excelled in this field. The workshop definitely exceeded my expectations. I have learned things in the last 2 days that I will be able to practice and create from home.

You guys run a fabulous and inspiring studio. What a nice atmosphere this place has! (Its energy is real good.) I just expected to come and act out some stewing "inspiration". It's been too long. I had a ball. It has been a privilege working /spending a day with the two of you. Thank you.
