Martha Henry
I started my 35 year career as a glassblower in Calgary, exhibiting extensively throughout Canada and abroad. My blown glass consisted of sandblasting images on the surface of the glass and the use of gold and silver leaf overlays. My work has been represented in many private and corporate collections.
In 2012 | decided to make a career change to pursue my love for color, drawing and more representational images. This opened up a new world of working with acrylic paint and sometimes incorporating the use of gold and silver foils.
My paintings reflect the world around me and I draw upon my photographs of times spent travelling to years of childhood memories of exploring the forests in the Laurentians in Quebec. Nature has always been a place of home for me. I love the energy and serenity I feel when I'm in the elements and I try to portray these feelings in a style that blends impressionism and realism.
