MARGO STYAN

Margo (Brisebois) Styan was raised on a farm in Saskatchewan. In her younger years she remembers fondly the times she spent drawing. After leaving home Margo worked her way across Canada. She enjoyed exploring and experiencing different lifestyles. She married Jim Styan in 1982 and they fostered and then adopted six wonderful children in the Yukon. In 1993 a “miracle” baby was born. Even though all this activity took up a great deal of her time, Styan was able to fit in some art work in the family dining room.

In 1998 the family moved to the Okanagan where Margo was finally able to develop her own style of art work. She now considers that as fulfilling one of her life’s dreams. The Styan’s now live in Central Saanich, Victoria, where they are enjoying the climate and especially the warm, hospitable people of the Island. Jim is truly her helpmate in this endeavor having dyed many of the fabrics used in her art.

The Artist’s Work

There is a great need for peace and tranquility in the world today. Every living being can testify to this. We must stop, look, listen, and meditate upon all the wondrous things that the Creator has provided for our well being and growth. My art is intended to help those who stop for a while to look and then listen to their own inner beatings of their heart which urges them to meditate and discover truth for themselves and help them “grow and develop and appear in the utmost beauty”. I believe we all have a gift that needs to be discovered and offered to this existence, and thus peace and tranquility can be found.
