Art Crawl Details

While Helena Wadsley has a Masters’ degree in painting, she now focuses on textiles. She has been exhibited internationally & is included in several publications. She has an exhibition at the Gibsons Art Gallery fall of 2025. Her textile works incorporate re-purposed materials that are sewn or knitted into seductive forms. Each piece comes to life through a contrast of colours & shapes.

Helena also makes oil paint. Her line, Madder Paints, are hand-made using pure pigment. Pigment-loaded, unctuous, & made without solvent, not required in their use.
