Claudia Schaefer
Claudia Schaefer is a self-taught painter and photographer.
In recent years, her paintings and sculptured pieces with epoxy resin have represented an escape from the mundane and routine. Using bold colour and organic shapes, she explores chaos and order, serenity and excitement. Claudia has gained an intimacy with the natural world through her 30 year career as a botanist and ecologist, and she is fascinated by the way this relationship can manifest in her paintings.

Micheline Meszaros
As a budding gardener and a growing artist, Micheline is inspired by trees and the natural environment as subjects for her landscape paintings. She is happy to be living on Bowen Island where the great outdoors always waits. Forests and trees are the primary focus of her work and provide great shape, texture and colour. Micheline hopes to share her love of plants and trees through these scenes from her walks in the woods and trails of Bowen Island.

Carol McNaughton
Drawing and painting were pass times I seriously enjoyed as a child. After graduating from high school, I spent a year at the art college in Calgary. The reality of making a living interrupted my studies and over the years I was involved in jobs unrelated to art. Eventually my partner and I owned a prepress company, supplying designers, ad agencies, publishers and printers.
My favourite subjects are people and animals. Living on Bowen has given me a lot of reference, and I love its scenic beauty. I learn with every painting, and at every opportunity. carolmcnaughton@shaw.ca
david riddell
David has worked with wood for most of his life.
Now he sees trees and their parts differently.
What can be exposed? What can be created? Grain patterns and more.
Once he has a piece on the lathe; the inner soul of the tree emerges.
He works mostly with locally sourced woods from orchards, gardens, or the forest.
