The Roots of Inspiration with Natasha Jabre
Inspired by the exhibition Face of the Sky, young artists will explore the power of natural lines and forms as they experiment with various creative processes.
Natasha Jabre is a representational painter whose work highlights the strangeness of everyday situations using symbolism and surreal lighting. She received her BFA from Concordia University in Montreal and her MFA from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in North Dartmouth, MA. Her artwork has recently been exhibited in Canada and the United States, as well as internationally in Berlin, Italy, Lebanon and Spain.
3 April PA Day Art Camp has been cancelled, following the lead from the Ontario Ministry of Education and Queen’s Policy on Events and Gatherings.
Creative Colour Conversations with Emebet Belete
This workshop explores the creation of collages and prints that sing through colour choices that contrast, pop and complement each together.
Originally from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Emebet Belete is an artist and arts educator. With degrees from Queen’s University (BEd and Fine Arts) and The Addis Ababa School of Fine Arts Emebet now lives in Belleville where she keeps busy teaching and creating. Travel has always been part of her life. In 2008, she moved to TEDA, Tianjin, China with her family, where she taught art to an enthusiastic group of elementary students at Teda International School, as well as continued creating her own artwork, often inspired by the images around her.
