ART – Margaret Elizabeth Kuts

Art is one of my favorite activities. It has been my passion and love since very young age. Because my mom was an ECE art teacher at Collingwood Neighbourhood House, she was able to help me and give me the knowledge I thirsted for. From the beginning I enjoyed colours of all sorts and loved all the different forms of art (pastels, watercoloring, acrylic …). I found it thrilling how one could turn a plain old paper turn into a wonderful masterpiece. My parents always took me to museums when we had time, and I remember thinking, jaw drooping in awe, that it was impossible to draw/paint like that. But now here I am, catching up 😁!!!
