Welcome! Bienvenue!
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. Her paintings are characterised by vibrant colours and movement that she creates using mostly pallet knives and her hands. She is committed to paying it forward and helping others through her art, donating a portion of each sale to local charitable organisations.
