In this artist video interview, Laureen Marchand, artist and owner of Grasslands Gallery Online, talks about her practice, her life as an artist, and how she came to start Grasslands Gallery Online. The video was originally seen on SaskTel Max TV and has had hundreds of views.
Laureen Marchand lives in Val Marie, Saskatchewan, just north of the Montana border at the gateway to Grasslands National Park. Inspired by this region’s subtlety and remoteness, her paintings reflect on our ideas about and awareness of beauty. In 2021, in response to changes that meant artists’ work wasn’t being see, Laureen created Grasslands Gallery Online, Saskatchewan’s only fully online commercial art gallery.
You can see Laureen’s approach to beauty in her artwork on her artist gallery page.
