| NOAA Members Wall: Catherine Wetmore - New Work 2006 Self Portraiture |
 |
It is a formal exercise of arranging and augmenting personal information and study – a reminder of where I have been and (maybe) where I am going – a self portrait over time that representss collective knowledge and history together. I have been making art for over 60 years – since High School in Yellowknife, NWT – with periods of formal art education interspersed. I have exhibited, mainly in British Columbia and have paintings in public and private collections in Canada, USA and Europe. (Wetmore |

| Vertigo Window Display: Margarita Alejandre - Self Portrait |
 |
Having travelled to Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Mexico and points in between, Margarita Alejandre’s work is a reflection of the ever-changing environment and her interpretations of the earth. Self Portrait is an exploration of the artist; exposed, vulnerable, and optimistic. The acrylic painting on wood panelling incorporates elements of the earth using layer upon layer of colour. Margarita Alejandre's culture has always influenced her art and she pays tribute to her Mexican heritage with passion, creativity, and determination. “My inspiration comes from some of the most beautiful places in the world and through imagination the two are fused together for a vibrant experience”. – Margarita Alejandre. Her work varies from intricately painted flowers and custom made signs to mixed media paintings and stimulating drawings. |
