Mireille Laroche is an artist from Ottawa, Canada who paints to transform herself and the world around her. Using acrylic and mixed media, her art expresses her emotions, stories and discoveries that accompany her through her journey.

She is committed to paying it forward and helping others through her art, donating a portion of each sale to local charitable organisations.

Dédiée à donner au suivant et à aider les autres à travers l'art, elle donne une partie des recettes de la vente de ses œuvres à des organisations caritatives locales.

New Art Drop March 25th!
While I haven’t put a lot of new art on my website this year, I have been busy creating and playing around with colours and techniques. I have momentarily left canvases, palette knives and brushes behind to play with printing techniques, most notably silkscreening.
On March 25th, I will be release a series of original art and high-quality reproductions of prints to raise funds for two local organisations: Centre 507 in Ottawa and Le Centre d’intervention et de prévention en toxicomanie de l’outaouais (CIPTO) in Gatineau.
Stay tuned, I will be posting regularly until the 25th to present the artwork and to talk more about these two organisations.

Malgré le fait que je n’ai pas publié beaucoup de nouvelles œuvres sur mon site web cette année, j’ai été occupée au cours des dernières semaines à créer et à jouer avec les couleurs et différentes techniques. J’ai momentanément délaissé les toiles, les couteaux et les pinceaux pour m’adonner à des techniques d’impression, notamment la sérigraphie.
Le 25 mars, je lancerai une série d’œuvres originales et de reproductions de haute qualité afin de recueillir des fonds pour deux organismes locaux : le Centre 507 à Ottawa et le Centre d’intervention et de prévention en toxicomanie de l’Outaouais (CIPTO) à Gatineau.
Restez à l'affût, je publierai régulièrement jusqu’au 25 pour présenter les œuvres et parler davantage de ces deux organismes.
