Natasha Lepine is the Omenica Arts Centre's September artist in residence.
The Métis artist based in Quesnel works en plein air, or outdoors, to create oil paintings of BC landscapes.
"Her art reflects a deep connection with nature, translating the stillness and emotions of the landscape into whimsical and warming pieces," states a press release from the arts centre.
An opening reception will be held Friday, Sept. 6. from 5-8 p.m. After that, Lepine will hold artist hours at the gallery on Fridays from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.
Lepine will host a free outdoor landscape painting workshop at Lheidli T'enneh Memorial Park on Sept. 12 from 1-4 p.m. To register, email [email protected].
