The Artist
DORIS MCLENNAN
My love of painting started a few years ago. While I’d done photography for decades, painting was a mystery to me and I decided to explore a subject I knew nothing about. With much trepidation, I enrolled in a “Learn to Draw” course. It was a life changing experience, as I came out of the course with confidence and curiosity to learn more.
I proceeded to take a beginners acrylics course at the Coast Collective Art Centre in Victoria, B.C., and a variety of art courses offered at the Arts Centre at Cedar Hill Victoria. I belong to the Cedar Hill Art Centre, the Coast Collective, and the Oak Bay Art Club. My work has been displayed at numerous coffee shops around town, and through the Coast Collective’s Roaming Gallery and Art Space programs, Sooke Harbour House, Metchosin Art Gallery, ,Saanich City Hall, and Gorge on Art on Canada Day,
I’ve retired from a career in social services, have two grown children and live with my husband and two standard poodles in Victoria, B.C. All of my artwork is done from photographs I’ve taken, mostly when I was on vacation, so I’ve called my show Holiday Dreams.
