Meet the Artist

Lorraine graduated on an Arts programme in 1973. She now lives in Nanaimo, British Columbia.

In 1986 she started “FINAL TOUCH CRAFT” and had items in many venues including “BUTCHART GARDENS”.

Lorraine has worked in many different mediums and started in watercolours in 2003.

It all started with her dogs. Self taught she started specializing in painting “All Breed Dog Watercolours” and started “Capture your Dog”.

Lorraine feels privileged to paint Family pets to Best in Show dogs. Never did she imagine that her paintings would find homes in so many different countries.

Painting a horse for a friend has now led to a new endeavor and found her in the horse world. A new website, captureyourhorse.com coming in the future.

Capturing the Beauty of Flowers is another passion of Lorraine’s. Growing up in the “City of Gardens”, Victoria, B.C. gave her an abundant array of gardens and flowers.

Creating Floral Paintings was a given. The vibrant colors and the melding that watercolours allow are a perfect match for her.

With an artist’s eye she is always aware of the colours, light reflections, and shadows and how to apply them to her work.

Lorraine hopes you enjoy viewing her work as much as she enjoyed painting them.
