Natasha Lepine is a Métis multimedia artist residing in Quesnel, British Columbia. Primarily working with oil on canvas, Lepine often finds herself working en plein air, the art of painting in the moment, outdoors and surrounded by nature. Each piece translates the emotions of a landscape into expressive works of art, inviting the audience to connect with what Lepine may have felt during their creation.

The title, written in Northern Michif, means “It is solved by walking,” a name inspired by the latin phrase “solvitur ambulando”: to find a practical solution to life’s problems. With this theme, we may allow ourselves to trace Lepine’s journey, experiencing where she has walked and created these pieces, overcoming some of her troubles along the way. Perhaps while walking alongside her art, you, too, will begin to find your way around some of life’s many obstacles.
