Wendy Tigchelaar
Artist Statement
Our relationships with the Source of Life, ourselves, and the living world around us interests me. I love to paint, cut, stitch and play with all sorts of materials to express the wonders and hardships of life. When not making art I am an advocate for people with intellectual disabilities. Walking alongside people through life changes, health issues and the end of life impacts my work.
