ABOUT NATHALIE BERTIN...
Born in Toronto, Canada, of French and Algonquin heritage, Nathalie Bertin's work has been described as luminescent and energetic. Nathalie has a keen sense of observation and a fondness for strong colours and textures. She draws much of her inspiration from the beauty of the natural world and focuses on their essence, in alignment with her cultural roots.
Nathalie has been influenced and inspired by such greats as Matisse, Monet and the Group of Seven, and by contemporary Aboriginal and Métis artists such as Leland Bell, Maxine Noel, Linus Woods, Terry McCue and Christi Belcourt.
She currently works from her home studio in Newmarket, ON and home-away-from-home in Muskoka, ON.
