Deanna came from a teaching and a business background.  This didn't stop her from pursuing her artistic interests.  She took some formal art training and studied with several well-known artists.  Painting in oils was followed by watercolor work, and then encaustics.  Her work has been displayed in many venues, with several of her paintings having been purchased for the Alberta Rural Municipalities Conferences.  Her encaustics have been featured on TV, and she was the feature artist for the March/April 2009 issue of The Country Register in AB.

Quilting became another passion of Deanna's when she found time to take some lessons in 2000.  She joined the Parksville Guild when she moved to the Island in 2010.  Since then, she has had several quilts juried into the Canadian National Show and the Houston International Show.  She has won numerous awards, including a Judge's Choice Award in Houston.  Also, one quilt was chosen for a special exhibit called The Best of Canadian Quilts which was held in Lowell, Massachusetts.

Deanna loves the diverse scope and artistic challenges that quilting can offer, along with the friendships created along the way.

Carola’s Quilt Shop is our vendor for November.  If you aren’t familiar with Carola’s unique style, you will be in for a treat.  The “eye candy, oh the eye candy”!
