How I pay my bills
Graphic Design
How I feed my soul
Art... I am a “glaneuse”, a gleaner… In scrap heaps of abandoned or demolished buildings, alleyways and flea markets, I find rare treasure. Garbage. Remnants of wood and metal, books, boxes, old paintings, all that have been discarded are interesting to me. | My work deals with obsolescence. Each “found” object has out-lived its time and has therefore been scrapped. Dead. I rescue and assemble them with collected items from my own past. I sense the object’s energy guiding its reincarnation to a higher purpose. Art. | These artifacts that have chosen me, tell stories of where they have been, where I have been, where I am and where I am going. Stories of passion and anger, strength and weakness, love, hate and fear. Revealing me to me.
I am...
me: I am content to be me, with all my imperfections and strengths. I believe I am beautiful and just by the fact that I am human I am worthy and that the sacred inner spirit is strong in me as it is in all of us, if we just go into the silence and listen to it and find it... allow it to re-surface. This is why I am happy happy... sorry, did I forget to mention that I'm "living in sin" with Sol Lang :)
What rings my bell
I am a mixed media artist who paints, creates 3D assemblages, photography, video & produces limited edition prints. Recently, I had my third book published. A graphic designer by profession, I am co-founder and partner of Crayon Design & Communication, a Montreal-based graphic design firm, with husband artist/photographer, Sol Lang.

FEATURED ARTIST Ross G. Williams finds some balance!

What inspires me?
Light, textures, lines (usually straight) all in a balance. Mix these with associations, memories and passions, also all attempting to find some balance. When the external visual kicks loose an internal emotional association I just have to take the shot, make the drawing, glue the sculpture or just make due with whatever media is ava… Continue

Artist of the Week July6.09

This week's FEATURED ARTIST is BENOIT DAVID.

"BENOIT DAVID's art is very remarkable. His vision is clear and sharp and the message is truly important to us all. These images ring true with the frailty of the flesh and reveal inner purpose and strength... it is in the nakedness of our human emotions that we may find our true strength... Thank you, Benoit, for sharing and baring your soul with all of us."Continue
