I paint in acrylics, and I specialize in portraiture. I also paint animals--pets and birds in particular. My goal in capturing likenesses is to convey life, not through the precision of rendering but through the energy of wielding a large brush with skill and blending paint on the canvas. I prefer to paint large, up to 30x40", but am exploring painting small too--down to 6x6 inches (so far!).

Description:
Within the range of possibilities of any given moment there lives a state of enchantment – the chance to find and follow our bliss. When I work in my studio, that is the place where I reside.
There is an alchemy that never ceases to amaze me when working on my metal pieces, how hours of drudgery spend grinding and buffing small pieces of metal and then bending and forming begin to turn them into a beautiful shape.
My metal pieces also tend to take on very feminine forms, flowers and seed pods. They are not always realistic. They are not what you would expect. And slowly, my eyes are being opened to the way the process of forming a beautiful sculpture mirrors the ways our beings as women are shaped.

Georgina Montgomery
Mediums:
Mixed Media, Painting, Photography
Description:
I'm an abstract/contemporary artist working in mixed media, photography and paint. Chief among my creative influences: abstract expressionism, colour field painting and surrealism.
The marvel that we exist, and time—the currency we spend for existing—are key themes that influence my art making. My aim is largely on interpreting and expressing visually what scientists, philosophers and poets have to say on both subjects.
My focus in the last couple of years has been a photo-based project that harnesses crazed light. Using an unconventional “lens train”—and, by usual photography standards, imperfect technique—I can seemingly expand the content in any slice of time. The resulting art works, produced as archival pigment prints on fine art paper, capture the rich sensuality and complexity of paintings.

Address:
#103-255 Ingram St Duncan BC V9L 1P3
Description:
With a keen eye and attention to detail along with the philosophy that food should evoke the trifecta of memory, emotion, and hunger in people, Jules Sherred is an unparalleled emerging talent in the field of food and lifestyle photography.
Based in Duncan, BC, Sherred works as a photographer, writer, journalist, and outspoken advocate for disability and trans rights. He is an official contributor to Getty Images, a staff writer for Fstoppers news site, an instructor for professional photographers looking to expand their skills, and is an accredited food photographer with the Professional Photographers of Canada.
Sherred’s history behind the camera goes back decades, from growing up in a household that encouraged photography to being an active member in various photography clubs. His experience during that time instilled the art and science needed to be a quality photographer, but it wasn’t until 2019 when he started his web site, Disabled Kitchen and Garden, that he began to develop his food photography skill.
Disabled Kitchen and Garden was born out of the need to include disabled people in the conversation around food. Through the site, Sherred’s focus was to write about his own experience as a disabled person by sharing the benefits and joys of accessible products while providing a number of tips, tricks, and recipes to make cooking and gardening easier for a variety of disabilities.
Initially Sherred took photos chronicling the cooking process for his readers, but as popularity for the site grew and the opportunity to author a cookbook presented itself, much of the past year went into developing his photography skills to a professional level. The results from that intense period of study are a veritable feast for the eyes. Photos brimming with vibrant colours and staged in a way to both showcase the skill in which the food was prepared and entice the viewer to experience the flavours the dish has to offer.
Possessing a talent and creative eye only matched by his unwavering advocacy for the needs of marginalized communities, Jules Sherred is doing so much more than simply taking photos. He’s sharing the world through his eyes and letting his subjects, inanimate or not, tell their story.
