Event Description
Joni Wilson and Corrine Wilson, are mother and daughter artists. They spend a couple weeks a year on location, painting from nature in the Cowichan Valley or on the Gulf Islands, or in southern Alberta from Cochrane to the Waterton area. They paint with a group of similar-minded artists, hauling their gear into the bush, through rivers, or up mountain ridges for the perfect plein air locale.
Joni Wilson studied with Dick Van den Hoogan in Calgary, Foster Caddell, Mike Coleman, and for a decade led art groups into the wilderness under the instruction of Montana artist Joe Abbrescia. Joni has been drawing and painting her entire life, but studiously since 1971.
Corrine Wilson studied with her mother and Joe Abbrescia, and been painting in the Cowichan Valley and islands for twenty years.
