Lois Gardiner

My name is Lois Gardiner and I chose the above picture purposefully as my first and most important job in my life is being a Mom. I have two beautiful girls and only one puppy now but the older one is still in our hearts. I have a fast paced career in the corporate world day to day creatively helping our clients with risk management consulting; my second job.

Only recently I have begun to identify also as an artist (my third job) and therefore have decided to put my art out into the world to share. Art to me is something that I have used as a solace and comfort while I am creating it - it really does feed my soul. However I believe art has an impact on others because of how it speaks to them, the emotions it creates when you look at a piece of art, and what it stirs in another persons soul. What I am learning as I see others reactions to my art is that it creates a healthy energy that is an interesting catalyst creatively.

I am self taught partially, but also have taken both directed and self directed classes and the odd course or two including weekend workshops. I enjoy learning and trying new things and love to be challenged with something specific someone has in mind that they want to create for a space. This is fun a challenging and something I am open to discussing with anyone who is interested. I love seeing the outcome for the specific spot. To be honest sometimes not my first choice to paint but interestingly perfect for the space and when it works it makes the piece of art amazing.

I believe you grow each day and we are responsible for the the world we create around us….my hope is this feeds your soul in a positive way and brightens your day.
