DESCRIPTION:Are you looking to be inspired for the next stage of your life?  Wondering where to begin as you re-imagine where your creative opportunities and life changes may take you?  Join artist and author Janice Mason Steeves as she talks about how an insistent dream she had while she was at an artist residency in Sweden\, led to writing ‘Bloom: On Becoming An Artist Later in Life’. Interspersed with stories of  the 138 artists she interviewed\, Janice shares her own journey to become an artist as well as the research she did into art and aging.  While written with older artists in mind\, this is an inspiring book about creativity for all ages and all mediums\, whether music\, writing\, painting\, or poetry. \n \nFind out more!  Join us in the gallery to share\, learn and be inspired.  Guests will also be able to purchase an autographed copy of ‘Bloom’\, and carry home further inspiration to continue at home. \nCost: $10 ($8.85 + HST) \nTickets and registration below. \n \nMeet Janice \nBorn in Saskatchewan\, Janice Mason Steeves graduated with an M.A. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Manitoba. She held School Psychology positions before leaving the field to focus on painting. Further studies were completed at the Ontario College of Art and Design. Janice is represented by galleries in Canada and has work in public\, corporate\, and private collections in North America and internationally. She has been awarded artist residencies in Spain\, Ireland\, Sweden\, Iceland and the U.S. \nJanice is passionate about helping artists form a deeper connection to the earth and to that end\, she has developed an art teaching initiative called Workshops in Wild Places. In these unique workshops\, we travel to remote locations throughout the world to experience the beauty\, energy and power of the wild landscape\, to deeply connect with it and then\, through a contemplative and creative process\, translate that response into abstract paintings. \nJanice’s book Bloom: On Becoming an Artist Later in Life is an inspirational look at how our older years are a time of inner soul work and continued growth through our creativity. \nAuthor Kathy Stinson writes\, [This book is ] “A wonderful mix of anecdotes about the author’s own personal journey as a visual artist\, the stories of the men and women she interviewed\, and her research into creativity and aging. An inspiring read for anyone thinking it’s too late to indulge their long-ignored creative impulses\, as an artist in any field.” \nFor more information on the artist\, please visit janicemasonsteeves.com or  workshopsinwildplaces.com \n  \n
