Danielle Beaulieu - Danielle started collecting original art in her 20s. Over the years she has collected many paintings, more than can hang on her walls. Of all her paintings, only a small one was a watercolour, which is why it might be peculiar that she was drawn to watercolours as a hobby, a few years before retirement. One Saturday, upon having a lightbulb moment, she headed off to Michael's Craft Store and purchased some watercolour paints, paper and a few books. Finding it difficult to grasp watercolours from books, she pursued her learnings from online videos. Following her retirement from the public service approximately 4 years ago, Danielle in watercolours
immersed herself and painted for many hours each day. She was encouraged by the positive results that hours of practice brought.
