Inspiration And Support Is So Important!
Marcia is fortunate to have the support and help of her wonderful family and friends. Especially her husband, Doug, as he is her life and work partner, helping in so many ways.
Marcia has always been thrilled
and proud of her longtime friend, painter Patricia F. Brown
of Salt Spring Island, BC. Patricia had tried over the years
to remind Marcia of her own creative side. Patricia continues
to amaze those around her with her natural energy and true love
of the Earth’s Health. She paints from the heart showing the
cycles of life in nature www.pfbrown.com.
Six years ago, Marcia took a workshop with the multi talented
artist/artiste Sylvie Roussel-Janssens of Chilliwack, BC, again
sparking the creative side in Marcia. Sylvie works with
wire, fused glass, fabric, lighting and wood giving people the
chance to think about everything from the past to the present,
reminding people of the impact of change to the earth. The
finished product - light sculptures with botanical inspiration www.lsclight.ca.
Thankfully, in 2007 Marcia met Sam McPeek of Calgary Alberta
is a renowned natural stone artist. His mosaic work is stunning
with a stained glass tightness and 3D aspects his murals come
to life. He saw the beauty of Marcia’s free flowing style and
with his advise she has created her own organic rustic style www.sammcpeek.com.
Due to their love of the stone, Marcia
had an instant connection with Anna Carnell of Millarville, Alberta.
She shared her incredible knowledge with her www.stonecraftmosaics.com.
