about

The art of calm.

    Roberta Hoiness is a contemporary artist who paints from her home studio within the calm & quiet of the Canadian prairies. Using a palette of organic earth tones and many shades of blue, Roberta likes to paint the “feeling” of a place rather than the details. Her calm, contemplative landscapes are "gently abstract", allowing others to interpret, and connect to the art in their own personal way. As a wife and mother of three, she holds a deep appreciation for the connection we share with the land and places that make us feel "at home". She aspires to reflect these feelings of calm, comfort, belonging & gratitude in her art. 

    A portion of proceeds from Roberta's art is donated to organizations who provide support to at-risk women & youth. She acknowledges and is grateful to live on Treaty Six Territory (Cree, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota, Saulteaux, Dené) and homeland of the Metis People.
