Tanya Steinhausen
Tanya was born in 1975 in Vancouver BC. She has worked in the ArtWorks Program since 1996. Tanya works diligently as an artist studying and researching places and people. This inspires her to paint and draw subjects such as animals (especially pandas, bats and giraffes), SuperHeroes and castles. Tanya finds particular inspiration in her favourite Canadian artist, Emily Carr. “I like her style, her rough energetic brush strokes and her native villages.” Tanya has had numerous solo exhibits. “I’ve always been an art fanatic”. | SOLO EXHIBITIONS | | 2005 | Images of India, Thailand and Egypt, GHS The Boardroom Gallery | | 2004 | Heritage Visions, Emily Carr House | | 2002 | Animal Magic, GHS Boardroom Gallery & Bagel St. Café | | INTERNATIONAL GROUP EXHIBITIONS | | 2007 | The International Drawing Show, Glasgow, Scotland | | 2004 | The Universal Print Show, Project Ability Centre, Scotland | | 2000 | Okinawa Barrier Free ArtSummit, Okinawa, Fukuka, Muyazaki, Japan | | | The Universal Print Show, Project Ability Centre, Scotland | | 1999 | Hometown Stories, First Street Gallery, Claremont, California | | SELECTED GROUP EXHIBITIONS | | 2009 | Holiday Exhibition, Community Arts Council Gallery - Annual exhibition | | | Grand Opening, Karin Koerner Gallery | | | Carole James Constituency Office, Victoria - Annual exhibition | | | Annual Artist Trading Card Exhibition, Richmond Art Gallery | | | Luminara Festival | | | Moss Street Paint-In, Art Gallery of Greater Victoria - Annual exhibition | | | The Pink Show, Karin Koerner Gallery | | | GHS Golf Tournament Art Auction | | | Cedar Hill Café Gallery | | | Saanich Celebration of the Arts, Karin Koerner Gallery - Annual exhibition | | | Look, The Bay Centre - Annual exhibition | | | | | 2008 | ArtWorks Group Show, Saanich Municipal Hall Exhibit | | | | | 2007 | Smallville, Garth Homer Society | | | Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | Garth Homer Foundation Celebrity Golf Tournament | | | Art on Roslyn | | | Saanich Arts Awareness Exhibition & Demonstration | | | Hearts on Hollywood | | | | | 2006 | Superheroes, Super and Ancient | | | Creature Features, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | | | 2005 | In the Heart's Studio, Canadian Art Therapy Conference, University of Victoria | | | | | 2004 | Mentorships in the Making, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | KickstART 2 Festival, RoundHouse Community Centre, Vancouver | | | Dreambuilders Exhibition | | | | | 2003 | ArtWorks Group Show, McPherson Library Gallery, University of Victoria | | | Global Images, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | | | 2002 | Dog Save Dog World, The Gallery on Herald | | | Face to Face, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | | | 2001 | ArtWorks Program Print Exhibition, Garth Homer Society | | | KickstART Exhibition, RoundHouse Gallery, Vancouver | | | Making Waves, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | | | 2000 | In The Footsteps of Emily Carr, Garth Homer Society | | | Global Images, Martin Batchelor Gallery | | | The Mandala Show: Art Inspired by Tibetan Monks | | PUBLICATIONS | | 2008 | ArtWorks Perpetual Calendar | | 2000 | Thrifty Foods Community Calendar featuring the work of ArtWorks artists |
