| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I began to get serious about art four years ago after a doctor's appointment. At the time we weren't sure what was happening and I decided I wanted to express my heart's message & creativity intentionally while I could. I am well and have continued to paint! |

| Your Personal Biography |
Lenore Walker’s journey towards creating fine art has been a winding path. After completing her master’s degree & employment in her first career, she turned her attention to pursuing more creative venues in 1992. Certified & trained in Old World decorative painting, she employed herself in creating environments for residential and commercial clientele. This work gradually evolved into an increasing desire to focus on creating fine art works in a variety of styles and media. In summer of 2004 she focused her attention on contemporary abstract and experimental painting, honing her understanding of acrylic media, glazing techniques and abstracting landscapes and has studied under the direction of many accomplished fine artists. Lenore uses a variety of tools and media to achieve richly layered colour and textural dimension which result in intensely vibrant & mysteriously luminous paintings. This “intense tranquility” as she describes it, comes from knowledge of the physical properties of her media & the “wonder of the random factor” in which the layers interact with one another in sometimes unpredictable ways. The product is a combination of restraint and spontaneity which reveals the artist’s thoughts, feelings, & experiences as a visual journal of creative spirit and Spirit. She has shown her work in many venues, including the Goderich & Southampton co-op galleries, is a lifetime member of the Niagara Pumphouse Art Centre and also has works in private collections in California, British Columbia and Ontario. A native of the Niagara region and a summer resident of Southampton, ON, Lenore currently resides in St. Catharines, ON with her feline buddy, Smokey.
