Artist in Residence – Karin Edwards
Karin Edwards grew up partly in the beautiful landscape of British Columbia and partly in the open sky of Saskatoon SK. She loves family, horses, gardening and being outdoors. Creativity started being evident when her mother put her in art lessons with a kind art teacher who lived just down the street. It continued to show up in high school and beyond, but took a long break for many years while Karin embarked on an athletic career before she met the love of her life at which point family and children took precedence.
When her athletic career was over and children were growing, that’s when her brother said something that sparked direction for her introverted personality, “You are going to have to find a new passion”, he encouraged her. Thus began a new chapter of growing and developing this creative gift into something bigger.
Karin Edwards desires to use art to encourage others.
She has had the privilege of participating in local Arts Events and Displays including;
- Hope 150 Banner for Stage
- Airdrie Bus Shelters
- City of Airdrie Art Display
- Fundraising Event for Sparrow House
- Fundraising Event for Whispering Pines
Over the past several months, and during her stay at A Bear and Bison Canadian Country Inn’s Artist Residency, Edwards has laboured over a unique colouring book, Dreams of Heaven, which is now in print and available for purchase.
