Watercolour & Creative Exploration
Denise’s work beautifully captures the landscapes and architecture of Baie Sainte-Marie. At first glance, her imagery feels traditional and rooted in a strong sense of community and culture, yet her minimalist approach moves gently toward abstraction.
In this experience, participants will be encouraged to explore watercolour not only as a technique, but as a way of seeing — noticing light, shape, memory, and the feeling of a place.
