Studio Arts teacher honoured for work

Fine Arts instructor Bonnie Baxter has been awarded the Prize for Artistic Creation in the Laurentides region by the Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Quèbec. She received it in the context of the des Grands Prix de la culture des Laurentides that this year focused upon those in the visual arts. She is pictured here in her studio in front of two digital prints on canvas, Baphomet on the left and Ménagerie, right.

Baxter will speak at the Quebec musée national on Nov. 16 during a conference on Jean Paul Riopelle’s work held in tandem with their exhibit. A retrospective of her work over the past 10 years, Rewind, is slated for exhibition at the Laurentides Museum of Contemporary Art in Saint-Jérôme. After that, it will tour Canada and the U.S. until 2009, when it wraps up its journey in Turkey at the Istanbul Museum of Graphic Arts (IMOGA).
