Colleen Cassidy

RCAD Alumni 1981 // Fine Art

Artist Statement: "Art has always been a natural part of my life, even before I based my career upon it. When I paint, I am at peace with myself and with my surroundings.

My primary medium is watercolor, to which I often add pen and ink, collage and acrylic for different effects. I look for subjects that are pleasing to the eye: flowers, animals and contemporary abstract compostions. I particularly love cheerful vibrant colors.

My newest passion is signature hand painted furniture. I like to create a painting and carry the theme to create beautiful furniture. It is ART that is functional."
