About the Artist

Renée Forrestall received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in 1987.

As part of her evolution as an artist, Renée travelled the path often taken by artists of other centuries, particularly the Masters. She studied medieval icon painting. She also took courses in anatomy and biology to understand and replicate the human form. In 2000, Renée was Artist-in-Residence at the Camp Hill Center for Health Care for the Elderly where she explored themes related to aging and Alzheimer's among others.
