Lindsay Arnold
I grew up and currently reside in North Portal, Saskatchewan. I am rooted to my community by memories, family and a sense of place.
My ancestry is a North American mix and as a result, I practice few traditions that would associate me with any particular culture or ethnicity. The one link I do have with my predecessors is my creative skill. I come from a long line of people who could make things with their hands. Quilters, knitters and tinkerers of many kinds make up my family tree.
I feel connected to the past when I am making art. I am proud to continue the tradition of creating in my family. I have the advantage of being born in a time and place where I can work as an artist without being burdened by practicality.
