Based on a spontaneous plein air painting session, this painting night features a beautiful mountain landscape with The Lions. We’ll explore how artists translate fleeting en plein air impressions into fully realized works. I reveal some secrets of the artist's process, and we'll talk a lot about the finished version. The final artwork has been featured in multiple exhibitions across British Columbia and is now available for purchase.

Greens turn to ochres, deep reds, and flame-touched oranges. In fall, we’ll reflect on how seasonal change evokes inner stillness and memory. Inspired by Ania Salmina’s expressive brushwork and love for natural rhythm, this piece captures the poetry of leaves letting go.

To paint water is to paint movement, reflection, and light in constant dialogue. Inspired by the Belcarra shoreline, this painting captures the way sunlight shifts across the surface, changing with every glance and breeze. Join us to experience the joy with Ania Salmina's paintings.

Kitsilano Beach holds a special place in Ania Salmina’s story — it’s where her Canadian journey began and where her daughter made first steps. The shoreline became a place of reflection, rest, and strength. In this session, you’ll paint a scene full of personal resonance and feature your loved ones, creating your own view of a place.
