WELCOME and THANK YOU for visiting my website. I am an award winning artist who paints watercolours of antiques, nature and still life. Feel free to ask questions.  In 2022, I received the honour of being elected to the Society of Canadian Artists.  I've also been featured in notable publications including Global Art Times, Arabella, UPPERCASE, and The Art of Watercolour.

The most obvious attribute of my artwork is the thin layers to produce rich colours to depict texture and reflections as a means of expression. This serves to depict the relationship of time and its effect on material objects. One of the major objectives in creating my paintings is my desire to fulfill an emotional response, rather than focusing on the subject matter.

If you do not find what you're looking for in my gallery, feel free to contact me.  I would be happy to bring your request to paper. 

Enjoying Teaching

Shortly after retiring from a fulfilling career in the public service, I started teaching watercolours.  It feels like I’ve transitioned from 35+ years of teaching fitness classes to coaching watercolours. A few years ago I started teaching online, as a result I’ve since had the pleasure of having participants from various areas of Canada and the United States. Here are a few comments from participants:

• "I’m having a lot of fun and am learning so much."
• "If you want to improve, go take one of her online workshops. She’s such a delight and a great teacher!"
• “I learned so much!”
• "If you want to improve your watercolour game, check out @daniellebeaulieuwatercolours. She was my guide and her workshops are amazing!⁣"
• “I took your … watercolor class for the first time and really learned a lot of techniques from you, thank you very much.”

The focus of all my workshops is not to “paint a pretty painting”.  I want to teach participants techniques that they can use with their own paintings.

Shipping Artwork

If you live in the Ottawa, Ontario area, you may pick up your framed artwork at an agreed upon location.

More and more my watercolours are mounted on wood, then varnished and waxed. This allows me to ship them without risk of breaking glass.

If you live out of town and the artwork is not varnished,  the artwork will be sold without the frame and glass. I will include the mat for a standard size frame.  XPress Post (Canada Post) will be used for all shipping.  The artwork will be packaged with a thin board to prevent any bending. Note that  XPress Post shipping includes tracking and insurance coverage for the value of your artwork.
