Walk on the Wild Side
Vernissage:
August 26th,

Artists Cheryl Dolan, Cathy Dolan, Debra Lambden and Clément Hoeck share their work and colours with us.
Art is a silent language. For me a successful painting is one that "reads" from across the room and then pulls you to it. It should hold your interest at a distance and more intimately close up.
My medium of choice, at this time, is mainly acrylic but I also enjoy the looseness of watercolour. I feel my experimentation with mixed media and different painting styles contributes to my enthusiasm and never-ending discovery of inspiration. I specialize in minimalist, landscape and abstract.
My mother, Alice Dolan, and my sister, Cathy Dolan both artists in their own right started my journey as an artist. I benefited from their participation in many workshops and courses through the years and thus my passion for art. Dale Shutt (silk painter) and Doug Mays (watercolor artist) influenced me by attending their inspiring workshops.
I am a member of the Pontiac Artists' Association (PAA).
