Cowichan Valley Sculptors:

Brad Allen

Brad's creations are borne of imagination, re-cycled iron and the pleasures of expression. The pieces of old, forgotten and discarded iron have their own story to tell and their history of use. Usefulness begins again with the help of a torch, welder and a desire to explore the positive sides of life.

Wall mounted and free-standing two or three dimensional sculptures made from re-cycled metal.

Colleen Freeman

Colleen draws her inspiration from the beauty of her surroundings and looks for the humour in life. She sees herself as a whimsical folk artist. If her creations warm your heart and bring a smile to your lips, then, in some small way, the world is a lighter place.

Gus Galbraith

To have a piece of stone on the bench and the sounds of the river in the background must be as close to Nirvana as one can get. The excitement of a project is the fuel of creativity. The stimulation of the highs and lows - disappointments and successes in the creation, is the reward.

Working in the softer stone - alabasters, steatite, soapstone's, allows me to limit the use of power tools. I love the surroundings to be as quiet as possible.

Sonia Galbraith

I find it immensely rewarding to release an expressive sculpture from a lifeless piece of stone, or a beautiful vessel from a lump of clay.

Jake Vanderwerf

Jake Vanderwerf is a twenty year old artist living in Duncan. He loves creativity, and will often go the extra mile to make something himself rather than buy it at a store. He generally works with wire, taking inspiration from what he sees around him and creating sculptures of nature, abstract, and people. He likes dark chocolate, teas, the ocean, reading, writing, and playing guitar.
