Creations by Daphne

Daphne Larocque – Born in Prince Edward Island and studied at the Ontario College of Art & Design University (OCADU). An Island-based artist, Daphne uses their paintings to appreciate and honor nature found throughout Canada. Combining their love of colour and the abstract with the desire to preserve their natural surroundings, they produce eye-catching moments in time that border between reality and a dreamscape. By exploring the use of heavy contrast, rigid shapes, and vibrant colour, Daphne challenges the boundaries of impressionism while paying homage to the many great Canadian artists who pioneered Canadian Impressionism.

In addition to their nature-inspired works, Daphne passionately celebrates the feminine presenting form through their art. By capturing the beauty, strength, and diversity of feminine identities, they create pieces that resonate with empowerment and inclusivity. This exploration adds a profound layer to their work, intertwining the natural world with the essence of human expression.

Jesse-Lynn Jenkins

“Jesse-Lynn Jenkins had been and artist, a maker and a creator all of her life. She enjoys creating and expressing herself with every medium she encounters.

After graduating high school with high honors in art, she attended the foundational studies year at ACAD (The Alberta Collage of Art and Design). In 2005 she landed an apprenticeship with a local tattoo studio and began her professional artistic carrier as a tattoo artist. After tattooing for 3 years in Calgary she moved with her family to Sussex, NB and opened her own tattoo studio.

Although tattooing has been her main form of creative expression, she has always continued to practice and create in other mediums. Acrylic painting, chalk art, body and face painting, crafting, sculpture and sewing are some of Jesse-Lynn’s creative passions. She now tattoos and creates from a private home studio here in Sussex called “Sacred heART Studio”.

When she’s not creating, Jesse-Lynn loves spending time with her son and her 2 dogs, spending time in nature either hiking, swimming, or tending to her gardens, or connecting with the wonderful people in her community.

One of her newest found passions is creating art LIVE in her community! Keep your eyes open for an event near you where Jesse-Lynn is creating her next work of art.”

MiLi

Millie Caron is an illustrator, muralist and art educator living in Montreal, Canada. She has produced murals over twelve countries and has appeared in many major events and festivals. Her art journey began during her many travels to the four corners of the planet where the textures, colours and magic of each moment nourished her creative universe. Her professional career is also marked by her art studies at UQAM and a engaged process into art democratization, social justice as well as awareness into issues related to mental health through social and community art.

MiLi developped an in situ approach that brings forward to a mutual conversation between her inner imaginary worlds and outer world of reality. She questions identity in relation with its environment as well as the power of care, play and imagination as a motor for social change. Her sensitive, colorful and dreamlike aesthetic brings a naive yet mature look at the human experience.

Silverwings

Silverwings is a visual artist and flow arts performer based in New Brunswick. From an early age, she has had a deep love for the arts and aims to encourage those around her to embrace their authentic, joyful selves.
Her multi-dimensional paintings, influenced by meditative practices and healing experiences, carry a message of healing for every viewer.

Spiral Sparrow

Spiral Sparrow explores realms of the shapeshifters. Creating into the unknowns to be able to un make the narratives we’ve been fed. And find our selves in the spiders web. Ever weaving.

Tabitha Power

Tabitha Power lives tucked away in a magical little off grid home nestled in amongst an old growth forest on the south shore of Nova Scotia. Tabitha’s art is inspired by the epic nature all around her, and her favorite painting style is organic and intuitive, using specially foraged materials from her forest home and mixed media.

That Fox Girl

That Fox Girl, or Niki, is a 32 year old multidisciplinary visual artist currently living in Ottawa, Ontario. After briefly studying fine arts in university she became disenfranchised with the practice and has been on hiatus for nearly 15 years. In the last year she has reawakened with new fervor, crediting much of her new found inspiration to the supportive, accepting and celebratory nature of the EDM arts and music scene. Aiming to pursue diversity and experimentation in her work, she fights back against traditional ideals of honing a particular style or committing to mastering one chosen medium. Instead she aims to pursue art for enjoyment, dabbling in differing styles and mediums with pleasure in the craft as her main focus.
