Mickie Acierno

Mickie was born in New Westminster, British Columbia and began
painting in 1978. Mickie paints full time in oils from her
home studio in Nanaimo, British Columbia.

For Mickie, the creative process begins with the act of placing objects next
to one another. She seeks to establish a composition in which those objects
compliment and strengthen each other through light, form, value and
harmony of colour. Like characters in a play these objects tell stories that
are magically endless.

"I am filled with gratitude for the ability to live the artist's life: in my studio, being an artist, every day."
