Carla SteinCarla Stein makes art and writes - mostly poetry, but she is up for writing in any genre - in Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The development of her artistic expression speaks to the influence of many hours spent playing and lerning among the museums and public art displays of Chicago, Illinois. After immigrating to Canada, she achieved a fine arts diploma from Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. Her career path has involved teaching art to children and adults as both recreation and therapy. She is fascinated by the images words evoke, and finds her poetry often cross fertilizes her visual compositions.Stein works in a variety of two dimensional water-based media, including acrylics, watercolors, and inks. Her style incorporates translucent glazes with impressionist sensibilities and surrealist imagery. Her work seeks to unlock imagination, spark stories, and invite viewers to examine the ways we currently relate to our environment. She has been an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and juried into numerous exhibitions and shows including Arts on the Avenue, Coast Collective and the Ladysmith Fine Arts Show as well as exhibiting in galleries in Victoria, Vancouver, California, New York, Calgary and Toronto. Enthusiastic collectors own her paintings and her images and poetry have been published both in print and online in numerous publications. Read More Read Less
