the richmond guild
Our first meeting of 2023 occurred Wednesday, Jan 11! Our guest artist
demonstrating was Roxsane Tiernan. Roxsane Tiernan was born and raised in the
Greater Vancouver area. She became an international educator teaching high
school and marketing for the district in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and
Mexico. She is a Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists showing in over 70
juried shows. She studied Applied Arts at Capilano College in the mid-seventies
and started painting seriously in 2000 when she joined the FCA and Burnaby
Artists Guild. She really likes the challenges of interpreting local nature
using chigiri-e—Japanese torn paper collage. She gives workshops and lesson in
this technique even in Finland or Manitoba. Roxsane joined the North West
Collage Society which is centered in Seattle. Her work was featured on their
posters and invitations. She has won several awards locally and internationally
mostly for mixed media or chigiri-e pieces. You can find her work on Facebook
Roxsane K.Tiernan; on both the Burnaby Artists Guild and South Delta Artists
Guild facebook pages as well as roxsanetiernan.com on My Art Club.com;
www.roxsanetiernanartandsoul.com and
https://roxsanetiernanartandsoul.com/writing. ART and SOUL has her poetry and
artworks together. Meetings take place 6-8:45 pm every second Wednesday of the
month except in Summer. Check the calendar below or our Facebook/Meta page for
details on our guest artist. For the time being, we ask that you remain masked
while indoors to protect some of our more vulnerable members. Please note that
the Cultural Centre prohibits food and drink indoors, but we may be able to use
the roof garden during the break.
