Karen Stienstra Creating with my hands has been an integral part of my life from very early on. Always had a project on the go, crocheting or trying out elaborate baking recipes.I acquired my love of painting while taking a watercolor course with Karin Huehold ,so much fun. I have taken several workshops but mostly self taught. These days I still paint in watercolor as well as acrylic. The subjects I gravitate toward have plenty of light and dark patterns, mainly florals and landscapes.	Elaine Thibault I was born on a farm in northern Saskatchewan.
