My artistic focus is on the animal form, inspired by its flawless design and functional structure. I am particularly interested in at-risk species, using my art to amplify their silent struggle. Through my sculptures I aim to celebrate their beauty, raise awareness about their status, and inspire collective efforts for their preservation.

Paterson, Beverly
Physical endeavour in all its variety carries with it a signature in the human form. Observing and re-creating in clay the myriad shapes life makes of the human body highlights, for me, the common thread that runs through all people. It is a reminder that we are all made from the same stuff, face the same challenges of life and death, and share the story of conception, birth, and a life created by us moment by moment.

Stewart, James
Figurative bronze sculptures.
“When we relate to someone from another culture, it is an expression of our collective humanity. That vulnerability, that connection, is the art. We have just made the world a smaller place.”
Martell, Larry
Graceful wood sculptures.
Rombough, Brian
Bold abstract wood and stone sculptures. Coming from a rich heritage of stone masons, I’ve always been drawn to shapes, patterns, and the inherent strength of natural materials. I endeavour to present pieces in their natural form and only alter them when structural considerations are required. Leaving a ‘live edge’ on the wood and stone accentuates the natural beauty of the piece. I’m always working at my craft and exploring new techniques to achieve my vision.

Bell, Leslie

Leslie Bell was born in North Carolina, studied languages at the University of Alberta and art and illustration at Emily Carr College of Art in Vancouver, British Columbia and Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
Brenan, Christa
Environmental, peace, societal and women’s issues have often been the focus of Christa’s sculptural work, gleaned from time working for nuclear weapons abolition, and peace groups. Often her works are created as a cathartic process, in the end hoping to inspire deeper enquiry in the viewer. Some pieces are figurative, or abstract – and others inspired by creation theories and myths from different cultures. Christa prefers working in marble and limestone, with some brucite and chlorite on the side. She often blocks out marble pieces using an air hammer, angle grinder and/or die grinder, then works with hand tools to design and finish. Her favourite tools remain her original three hand-made chisels, and a sweet Italian steel mallet.
Cline, Daniel

Cole, Stephen
stone, wood, mixed media and life cast sculptures.
My work is inspired by the jewels I have found to be truly moving, powerful and important in this life. Through line, colour and texture, the work speaks not to the eyes, hands or intellect but through to a deeper place. A quiet and more peaceful place. It may just say “wake up – something is happening here!”

McCrea, Colin
Principally a carver of jade, although I am still drawn to the beauty of other stones, such as classic Italian marble. Some of my work conveys a message through metaphor, some is an expression of my continuing utter amazement at the beauty I see all around me.
Compton, Kathleen
Waller, Trinita
Trinita Waller’s works are abstractions often based on a human form. Bending the language of form – juxtaposing it with a play of positive and negative shapes with the intention to create a balance – is a consistent exploration in her work. Often the pieces have a double entendre concealed with in sections of her work that are represented by the negative space.
Newark, Daniel
Spear, Deborah
Shudder, Ray
Ongaro, Ivano
Art is my passion and sculpture if my expression.
Martson, Luke
Contemporary Coast Salish Artist
I am inspired by the legacy of my ancestors. My work is a reflection of the respect I feel for the master carvers of long ago. I believe that we have to find a balance between traditional and contemporary art, and at the same time evolve and grow as Coast Salish people.

Glaros, Angellos
His appreciation for texture and colour, coupled with his love of wood, provide new inspiration in design. Angellos has also branched into metal work. He explored form through sculpture, and quickly moved into furniture and other functional pieces.
Laforme, Kent
Marble is my chosen medium for exploring the newness of something that has existed in one form or another since the beginning of time. The nature of this material resonates with the void, and offers a glimpse into the creation of something true. The origins of the material are the essence of my work and at the heart of my process. Somewhere, within the limits and possibilities of a stone, dwells a language beyond time and space. This is where I search for the shape of my ideas.
