Miskwaa Studio

The Miskwaa Gallery was opened in 2018 , this will be our 8th year participating in the Tour

My interpretation of “Elemental Art” is working with the elements. The substrate of my work is all wood panels, some as old as 200 years, hand-picked grains to depict movement in the sky or the water of the landscape/lakescape.

I use water-based custom colour stains which have been watered down to appreciate the grain of the wood.

I sculpt the wood to give the piece more dimension and texture, then may burn the wood prior to the staining process, hand sculpted trees some using a pyrography technique.

washroom facilities availableMany pieces may also have rock minerals integrated in the work sourced from the Miskwaa Zibii (Red River), some may also have a glow effect, most are then finished with a UV protected durable clear epoxy resin that catches and reflects light sources.

Restroom facilities will be available to the public
