Nadia has been passionate about art all her life. After exploring various materials, including drawing, painting, pastels, and printmaking, she chose oils as her medium of choice. Influenced by Carl Spitzweg and Edward Hopper, she aims to capture peaceful, natural scenes while developing a spontaneous style. "I wanted to challenge myself with oils and develop my personal style. Starting with “Cows,” I was drawn to the peacefulness of animals in the countryside. Initially using underpainting, I switched to a freer approach after finding it too stiff, which allowed me to express myself more freely."

"Where do I find my inspiration? When I see God’s hand painted sunsets all the way down to His delicate gorgeous flowers, that’s what inspires me. So, for 50 years this has been a dormant talent just waiting for the time to paint. I do hope these paintings put a smile on your face, bring you joy and hopefully give you the desire to have one proudly displayed in your home.

My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products."

Audrey's photography reflects a deep desire to explore the world more fully, often capturing moments “further up and further in” or “shooting into the light.” Audrey’s love for photography, inherited from her father, began with childhood experimentation and later as high school yearbook photographer. She has honed her craft to set up the perfect shot right in-camera, trusting the process of careful observation and mindful composition, avoiding digital manipulation. "Taking pictures has always been a source of enjoyment, calm, and peace for me," she says. "There’s something magical about capturing a moment and savouring all that surrounds it."

"For his original music, Zac collaborates with fine artist brother, Josh Tiessen...For "Streams in the Wasteland" and "Vanitas + Viriditas" (exhibited from NY to LA) Zac composed songs for each painting, crafting a world of unique custom textures to match their narratives." Zac lives near Toronto, works out of the ZT Music Studio, seeks out "uncommon instruments to experiment with", and continues to develop his "ambient cinematic approach, which allows the listener to discover new layers the more they listen and are immersed in the music."​
