Voluntary Self-Identification

The Arty Crowd funding sources require inclusion of members who identify as belonging to priority groups encompassing: Indigenous, ethnocultural communities, rural or remote residents, youth, and Francophones (english and french). Hamilton Arts Council further wants to measure its success in attracting members from all the diverse groups we serve in the Greater Hamilton Area arts community, including those who are LGBTQ2S+, and persons with disabilities. We will use the aggregates of the information collected here to measure our success in making The Arty Crowd an accessible and safe space for all who join. We thank the members of the committee from the Safer Spaces Project who advised us in creating an inclusive self-identification process.

Biography / Artistic Statement / Creative Vision

Based in Dundas, Ontario, Corine began drawing and painting in mid-career after taking courses at the Dundas Valley School of Art (DVSA). Having previously obtained degrees from the University of Guelph and Western University, she has, at different times, worked in finance and education. More recently Corine balances her role as artist with that of project manager and parent.

My drawings and paintings are often studies in observation. I focus on analyzing the value, colour, and form of my subjects, while exploring aspects of scale, and composition. Currently, I’m experimenting with translating my sketches into unique works upon return to the studio. Time, memory, experience, and other influences take a more active role in transforming my observations into new ideas. While this technique has been around for a long time, I'm intrigued by the changes that my reaction produces, in subsequent work.
