I have been a fibre artisan for 28 years. My training includes my mother, primary school in England, one year of Fashion Design and Technique at college and seminars over the years. I only work with natural fibres like Wool and Cotton. I adore wool. I have worked with Cashmere and Silk and Viscose ribbon. I didn’t choose it... it chose me, it was always with me. I learned to knit at 7 years of age and designed my dolls’ clothes at 11. I didn’t look around for something to do - it was always there. I just expanded upon it to try and earn my living at something I love. I love the molding, feel, smell, hand of fibre. The colour possibilities, shapes and uses. I’m addicted to the rhythm of hand knitting, I fell into machine knitting and am now addicted to what I can produce with he aid of a domestic knitting machine. I have done theatre and commercial pieces including The Who’s ‘Tommy’ for both the Toronto and Frankfurt productions. I want my work to be positive part of peoples lives by contributing warmth, quality, joy and happiness.

Rosamond Spencer Bechtel, Roz, was born in Montreal, but grew up in Halifax, Nova Scotia, surrounded by an ocean that would cast a spell on her all her life. While living and playing on the coast was very much a part of life there, it was not until her family moved back to Upper Canada that Roz realized how much Maritime life was part of her being. Having grown up in a household filled with family art (both grandmothers were painters) art school seemed a natural extension of her education. Roz was drawn to Fine Arts at York University in Toronto, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in design, drawing and typography, pursuits close to the architecture she was fascinated by. Roz worked for a design firm in Toronto, doing corporate design and illustration, and later began freelancing upon having children, both in Toronto and after moving to Kingston, Ontario in 1989. She began painting in earnest several years ago, enjoying experimenting with different media to bring to life the drawings her training had allowed her to master. Roz’s spare time is spent enjoying family adventures, beachcombing, photography and design, sewing and golf. She is married with two grown children. Every year, Roz finds a way to get to the coast. She thrives on the coast.

• Specialty:

Suzanne Berton, a francophone, breathes in her art daily. Born & raised in Sudbury, Ontario in a family of nine children, Suzanne Berton has made her home Kingston, Ontario, Canada for many years. "I consider Kingston my home now!" There are two types of works that Suzanne has used since age 30: creative writing and visual art. What has developed over many years has been: 1) creating children's stories - many for special needs; 2) drawing in both black/white and color. Also she has delved into wood relief carving as well as watercolour, acrylic, and ink. Suzanne has played around with political cartooning. Her first love in visual arts is drawing. Just as children should continue to use and learn to handwrite, Suzanne feels that children should continue to draw by hand before graduating completely to computers. Of all the training Suzanne has taken over the years, she believes a basic drawing class in college was the best training she ever had. "It has made me the artist I am today. That and years of practise." http://www.youtube.com/user/BeeMySu

"When I begin a piece, I rarely know ahead of time how or if it will turn out. I like to let a character evolve from the material that I am working with. If sometime during its creation, it makes me smile or sit back in wonder then I have succeeded. I hope that you like it!" If you should take on the quest of seeking out Jamie's studio, your journey will lead you along a narrow winding road weaving through the forest of Draper. The forest is a rough magical landscape. Legend has it that in the middle of the forest is a valley of white skin trees where Faeries still gather in gossamer gowns, their hair wild flower woven. Great wizards still practice ancient lore. At the end of the road near the edge of the map lies Bear Bottom Studio. Here in the forest Jamie lives with his wife Annette in a century old cabin nestled against the Lake of Draper. He invites you to visit the studio and walk through the lake side gardens or to sit by the lake and breath in the serenity.

Mr.Mackenzie Browning

• Discipline: Visual Arts
• Specialty:

Mackenzie Browning is a Kingston based artist who explores the contrast of rural and urban living through print based media and sculpture. He is currently completing his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with Honours at Queen's University. Mackenzie's work revolves around the idea of disposition, specifically the emotions provoked by the fast-paced urban lifestyle. Geometric shapes juxtaposed with organic elements reflect his personal view on daily life. Representations of farm life combined with rural motifs reflect on a simplicity not commonly found in a city environment. On a personal level, the pastoral elements within the work symbolize the land and community in which Mackenzie grew up. These aspects also represent a bridging of rural values with urbanized landscapes.

Born and raised in Kingston- I began my drawing career at The Kingston School of Art. From there I took my education in my own hands and travelled to Toronto, Italy, England, New York and New Mexico to gain proper exposure to what/how different artists were working. Five years ago I returned to Kingston- to focus on setting up my own studio. While creating my own work I decided to give back to the artistic community and began The Salon Prize (www.salonprize.com) a yearly open art contest that's goal is to offer artists a chance to win prizes and showcase their work. Currently my own work can be seen in private collections and online at www.cleahbunting.com
