Welcome

Currently Living in Calgary Alberta, with my roots starting in Manitoba and  my love for painting on Vancouver Island. It isn't surprising that the bulk of my  inspiration comes from my exploration of the Canadian prairies, mountains and the west coast. 

  The body of her current work is a statement on Canadian wildlife and how people interact with what they want to see. By drawing what she sees, then diluting it out with water and reshaping through loose applications of color and lines, she creates a new viewpoint of the subject. “The application of the medium is unpredictable much like my subjects can be. The intuitive process of applying layers of medium, building up the painting to tell a story that is usually,  both straight forward and complex."   

 After completing high school, which had an excellent arts program , she was accepted and attended Alberta College of Art and Design in 2003.

 After two years of study,she transferred to The Art Institute of Vancouver, where she completed a diploma in Game art and design in October 2008.  For the next few years, Natalie would pursue working for different video game companies as a Quality Assurance specialist, known for her artist eye. In 2011,  finding her way back to Calgary AB, she immediately jumped into the outdoor culture. Falling for the diverse countryside and its inhabitants, she quickly found new inspiration for her artwork.
