Who are we?
We are three friends who have been painting together for a long time and we regularly go on painting adventures.
It's always so much fun and every time we say the same thing: "We should bring more people with us because this place is so amazing"; or "We are having such a good time, we should share the joy". So, that's what we are doing!
We are putting together art retreats so that we can share the beauty and the joy with you.
We can’t wait to meet you!
Deborah CzerneckyDeborah Czernecky is a well seasoned Canadian Plein Air artist with 27 plus years experience of painting on location in all climates. The Canadian landscape, her “big back yard”, has provided a constant source of spiritual inspiration that generated her lifelong passion for nature that is reflected in
her work. As a result, Deborah has produced a diverse body of “en plein air” artwork reflecting her travels in Canada and abroad. www.deborahczernecky.com |
Sharlene StushnovSharlene is a Canadian artist, living in Victoria, BC. She finds great joy in the world around her and is in awe of the artistry of Mother Nature. Sharlene hopes to convey that feeling of joy to those who view her
paintings. Her palette can be vibrant and bold, as seen in her Canna paintings and still lifes. While at other times it can be more subdued, as with her driftwood paintings and landscapes. But always, it is about attempting to capture the essence of the moment. www.artbystushnov.com |
