Salomé Pérez
Art has been Salomé’s long life passion. She has taken art classes in México and with established artists in Canada. Her work has been exhibited since 2004 in galleries and public spaces in Ontario.
Her artwork has been developed from impressionistic to abstract style in different media. One of her major interests is doing portraits. She likes to study this subject by portraying likeness, personality and expression.
She is a member of Central Ontario Art Association (COAA) and of the Kitchener-Waterloo Society of Artist (KWSA). She was part of the KWSA executive committee as treasurer for 4 years.
In 2013, Salomé started to teach a variety of art classes to both adults and children in her home-studio, such as drawing, sculpture, and mixed media. In 2015, she helped out at the Kitchener Waterloo Art Gallery as teacher assistant in the Art Lab and Art Explorations programs.
Currently, Salomé continues doing portraits and painting the abstract representation of her subjects. She is interested in colour language, space and form.
