Luz Elena Fernández Martin ~ Artist Biography

My story in Canada began in the year 2000 when we moved from Mexico City with my family. At first it was not easy to settle but with full enthusiasm I was learning a new language and interacting with the multicultural society, I was fully dedicated to my family.

Through the years I have tried to balance all my interests in order to achieve my dream. Now that my children have grown up, I have returned to painting and it’s been a beautiful journey of creating art again.

Throughout the last few years I have been fortunate to learn under many amazing master teachers such as: Paul Richard James, Alejandro Rosenberg and the great watercolorist Patricia Guzmán amongst others.

I have also been invited to participate in art exhibitions such as:

  • Living Art Center, by Casa Cultura Colombiana Celebrating Latino Heritage Month 2018
  • Global Mexico Week in Toronto 2019 Organized by the Institute for Mexicans Abroad (IME).
  • The Magic of Latin America, celebrating “Hispanic Heritage Month 2019” at The Law Society of Ontario.
