Diane Larocque

aquarelliste

I was born in 1947, in Gaspé, Québec and I completed my education in the Outaouais region, as well as in Manitoba and British Columbia. I have always liked to draw and to do handicrafts. I travelled a lot. I became a teacher and a secondary school administrator in order to earn a living. I brought up three children. When I retired, I finally did what my heart and hands always wanted: to paint. I chose to work with watercolour because the medium suited my need for softness, transparency and diversity. I use inks as well since they offer resistance and stability and contribute to depth and sharpness. I discovered that I liked to paint on small surfaces and to use various papers… producing cards was a natural evolution.

I offer you my talent, my ideas and my expertise. My mini watercolours are created for your pleasure…and they give a personal touch to your letters and invitations … it is what I call functional art, a useful combination.
