Hello, I'm Miriam T.

The memories of my life in Haliburton​,​ the quiet of the rain on the water​,​ the vibrant colours of the changing seasons and the sharp relief of different textures from the rugged rock cliffs​,​ the struggling lone pine tree permanently misshapen by the wind or the delicate wildflowers growing haphazardly about. These memories are layered and intermingled with all of life’s experiences​,​ compressing​,​ rearranging and creating an ever-evolving well of inspiration. I tend to use a lot of organic shapes. I am a nurturer by nature​,​ using my hands to garden and grow​,​ to create new patterns​,​ shapes and colours. Painting and creating are my ways of interacting and sharing with the world. Colour and line​,​ movement and shapes are in constant dialogue​,​ and I am adding and subtracting until everything has been said and the canvas is quiet. I speak with my hands; I paint to say what I can't put onto words.
