Each day I go out to my studio and do what I do...
Sculpting, embroidery, and printmaking allows the artist to examine the essence of these animals. The texture of fur or feathers, the way light shines on antlers and horn, the artist presents them in unconventional portraiture and with minimal colour or with a brilliant application of vivid colour to bring across the character and diversity of what she sees.
Marsha Schuld is a multi-media artist working out of her studio in southern Saskatchewan. A lifelong artist, Marsha came to art as a career through all her other jobs and interests.
Largely self-taught, she has studied art formally through the University of Saskatchewan and arts programs at Red Deer College as well as attending numerous courses and workshops over the years in a variety of media. That diverse background is shown in her art practice which ranges across painting to drawing, sculpting, stained glass and needlework.
She received a second to none education from the skilled tutors at the Royal School of Needlework (RSN). The result is a proudly earned Certification with Merit from the people who embroider the Queen's coronation robes. To be included in this elite group of stitchers is a high honour indeed.
Her artwork has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions and won numerous awards. Her work is in corporate and public collections in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
“I believe strongly that we are a part of an integrated planet. No one thing exists without affecting all that is Earth. It is not “environmentalism” or “conservation” that drives me, though these things, to me, are the inevitable result of living fully. The environment around me has always evoked within me strong emotion and equally strong devotion. The basis for my work over the past 3 decades has been this which is near, that dictates my daily life and personal vision.
The Alberta and Saskatchewan are a region of habitats that requires patience, time, and attention to detail for their treasures to be revealed. So, I look. Closely. Through my work I wish to make a convincing argument for the importance of wildness. It is not enough to simply tell people that it is important – they must be brought to a new level of understanding. I want my work to prompt questions, to surprise, to charm and to convince the viewer that what they are seeing is worthy of notice, of protection, of honour.”
