Caron Dubnick Art

Looking to try something completely unique and creatively freeing? Step into the world of watercolour batik—where bold colour meets beautiful texture in a hands-on, immersive experience!
Join us on Saturday, May 23 at the Mann Art Gallery for a full-day workshop that blends traditional batik techniques with the fluid magic of watercolour painting with Caron Dubnick.

What You’ll Experience:

Discover how wax can be used as a resist to create stunning layered effects on paper—an adaptation of the traditional fabric-based batik process. Guided by experienced artist Caron Dubnick, you’ll explore this expressive technique step-by-step and leave with your own striking artwork.

• Perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike
• Small group setting for personalized guidance (max 10 participants!)
• A rare chance to explore a unique fusion of techniques
• All supplies included—just bring your creativity!

What to Bring:

We’ve got all the materials covered! If you have extra newsprint, flyers, or newspapers, please bring them along (they’ll be used in the wax removal process). And don’t forget—wear clothes you don’t mind getting messy!

After another horrendous fire season, I’m revisiting a previous theme. “Snow Ghosts 2025”, batik on cotton, 30”x30”. Actually, the burn is not so bad…… love the contrasts on these sunny march days.

So this happened last week! Thanks to the Mann Art Gallery for this wonderful event, to Art Placement for sponsoring the award, and to curator Jason Baerg for choosing “Dining Out” from a field of excellent artworks.

So excited to see Kyla Artist Caron Dubnick receive the Accimplishmet in the Medium of Watercolour Award for her painting titled ‘Dining Out’!! Congratulations Caron!!

We lost someone special. Kathie was a steady but colourful member of our group. ❤️

I’ve been neglectful in posting any work for ages….. and, frankly, have been neglecting my art life. But that has changed lately! I managed to get something in for the PA Winter Festival Art Show and Sale. This is “Dining Out”, a watercolour depicting one of our favourite stops on Lake Athabasca.

Haha….. missed this a few days ago but I suppose I should share.

Today’s featured artist is Caron Dubnick. Come join us at the 47th Kyla Art Show and Sale at Mont St Joseph Home to see Caron’s art and many other talented artists. Tickets are available from all Kyla artists and at the door. Nov.29 from 12-5.

“Dimensions” is up at the Sask Craft Council in Saskatoon for the summer months, and I’m excited to be part of it with my piece “Breathless”. Take it in if you can! There’s some exceptional pieces in craft media of all types. I’m unable to attend the reception on July 26 but maybe you can!

Well, now it’s official….. u am thrilled to have made the final cut for Dinensions 2025 with my piece “Breathless “. This is a batik on cotton, with decorative stitching, batting and quilting. Many thanks to the Saskatchewan Craft Council and their jurors, Wally Dion and Brendan Tang, for this honour!

Hello Tri-Community!

The Mann Art Gallery 49th Winter Festival Art Show & Sale opened up on Friday, Feb 7th in Prince Albert, SK. There is some great La Ronge representation in the show this year! In an effort to encourage you fine folks to check out the works in person, and be slightly enigmatic…we are holding off on sharing photos of them (for now). ☺️

That being said, be sure to check out the artists individual socials (links below) as they may be sharing some snaps on their own channels. We have six local artists, and also spotted a few former residents work in the show as well.

The dedicated staff at The Mann deserve all the props for putting on such a great show, creating a welcoming and supportive opportunity for artists to both display and sell their works in a professional setting. Thank you so much for all you do. ♥️

Congratulations to all of the artists involved, we are so proud and it is always excellent to see your work out in the wilds. 🖼️

The display is up from Feb 7th-Mar 22nd, 2025. Take a moment the next time south to slow down for a few and enjoy a variety of work from across Saskatchewan. While southbound to Prince Albert, just cross the bridge and hang a left at the first set of lights folks. It’s right there! ☺️
