Earth Art walk with Alana Hansen

Join us for a Earth Art walk with Alana Hansen on Friday March 3rd. We will meet at the Yellowhouse and walk to Cain Beach together. Open to youth 7-18. Drop in $15 (Suggested)

Alana Hansen is an artist who lives and breathes to create art with and inspired by nature. Having spent her childhood summers on the Southern Gulf Islands in Coastal British Columbia, Alana is drawn to places where the land meets the ocean. Immersed in nature is where she feels most at ease, where the interconnections in our ecosystems become infinite and where the art from her soul is awakened.  Through her ethereal watercolour paintings and impermanent earth art installation, she aspires to unearth a sense of curiosity and greater understanding of the interconnectedness between all living beings. At its core, Alana hopes that people will feel a deep connection to, and reverence for the earth.

With an interdisciplinary Bachelor of Science degree in Global Resource Systems from the University of British Columbia, Alana’s work is informed by a worldview that is uniquely grounded in both ecological science and art. It was throughout her education that Alana’s creativity truly began to flourish. She was inspired to paint as a means to connect all that she was learning- visualizing and transcending academia through art. Alana carries this intention into her artistic process today.
