Bio:
KATHLEEN ELLEN THERIAULT
Kathleen is an award-winning artist recognized for her mixed-media collage and abstract painting, and is an Associate Signature member of The Federation of Canadian Artists, Associate of Alberta society of Artists and Oil Painters of America.
Born in Calgary, Kathleen graduated from The Alberta College of Art with a major
in Painting and an emphasis in Drawing. After graduating in 1979, she continued her
art-making practice and worked as an illustrator, graphic designer and art instructor
in Canada, Australia and South Asia.
Kathleen is passionate about expressive mark-making, collage and contemporary abstract painting. A spontaneous mindset without boundaries or expectation of
outcome engages Kathleen’s creative spirit and makes space for playfulness in her studio practice.
Life’s exceptional moments are the fuel for Kathleen’s abstract expression.
She orchestrates elements of shape, value, texture, colour and line in an interplay of relationships that reflect her emotion and define the overall mood of each painting.
Her works are collected in Canada, Australia, India and the United Kingdom.
