Diana Chabros
In 2012, Diana Chabros relocated from Regina to Val Marie, a village in deep southwest Saskatchewan at the cusp of Grasslands National Park. Moved by the power of the land - its subtle energy, palette, geology, and sentience as a biological living entity - Diana documents, through paint, her dialogue with the area’s rich mix of cultures, stories, and sentient beings. An adjunct to her own professional art practice, Diana serves as a consultant/manager for her busy life partner, a senior interdisciplinary artist and nêhiyaw/Cree knowledge keeper, Joseph Naytowhow from Treaty Six. She also delivers Nature in Me© Intuitive Painting Retreats, cares for many Val Marie cats, and and operates a small bed & breakfast.
