Spotlight on Gisele:

Gisele

I am a visionary and an artist inspired by nature and mythology. I am passionate about making drawings and paintings.

I was born in Brazil and I was always in touch with many of the artists in the cultural city called Curitiba. Following in my Mom’s steps, I started to become a real artist when I took my preparation to get into the Fine Art University called E’colle de Music ET Beaux Arts du Parana.

During my time at the University I participated in all kinds of art issues, I had a great time! I had a placement in a restoration program using wood machines and preserving a Mate Museum. I participated in many art competitions and got first place many times. I also acted in a play and did some sceneries for the Opera houses.

I taught for several years until I decided to open my own Art Gallery. In this gallery I grew into becoming a real artist. I developed my own thoughts and created an art group that developed shows including performances and music.

My group opened up new boundaries for other artists. I started to write for magazines and newspapers. I worked as a partner for murals and architecture projects.

I decided to get married, have children and move to Canada. In Canada I did several new expressions inspired by the new nature. There I was attached to the Iroquois Village Park with its ruins and archeological long houses and lake. I did many paintings and before moving to the States I gave them to the Halton Park Conservation Area.

Now I’m involved with my women’s network, doing everything again in a new skin in a new mature way. I’m beginning to develop a new expression in my art via my exposure to this newly adopted country.

I’m open to share my skills, to connect with other people, to recreate new ideas and be a partner in any creative project.
