Artists
Cindy Dyson
Cindy Dyson's richly textured acrylic works chronicle the beauty and fleeting moments of the everyday urban experience. Through the use of brushes, palette knives, found objects and her own fingers, Cindy's acrylic works evoke mood, movement and a restless energy. The tactile nature of her bold swathes of paint beckon the viewer to touch.

Eric Ouimet
Eric provides a modernist twist to what’s familiar and relatable in Manitoba’s urban and rural landscapes — infusing both large-scale acrylic panels and hand-pulled, original screen prints with his signature clean lines, bold colour and exceptional eye for good design.
Eric was raised on a farm near the small community of Ste. Agathe in southern Manitoba. The prairie landscape and wide-open skies, as well as Winnipeg’s historic urban architecture, continue to inspire his work. Eric graduated from l’Universite de Saint-Boniface in Communications and Multimedia and has since worked in television as an award-winning motion graphics designer.

Weldon Neufeld
Weldon Neufeld combines the love of design with a desire to re-purpose materials that would have otherwise been burned or discarded, turning them into works that are functional, beautiful and made to be cherished.
Turned on a wood lathe, each piece is carefully shaped to expose unique markings and anomalies. Weldon sees these unique characteristics as symbols of the human condition, reminding us that we all bear the scars of life. Not defects, but things that make each of us who we are.
Weldon also uses yakisugi (Japanese wood charring) and acrylic glazing techniques to further enhance the wood grain and overall dynamic of each piece.
