Visiting Artist Program Featuring Colleen Green

We are thrilled to welcome Colleen Green to Queenston Pottery as part of our Visiting Artist Program—an ongoing celebration of creativity and artistic diversity. Colleen’s vibrant encaustic paintings bring imagination, movement, and emotional depth to local and imagined landscapes, offering a fresh and energizing gallery experience.

About the Artist

Colleen Green is an award-winning Canadian encaustic painter who works with beeswax, damar resin, and oil pigments to create richly layered, dynamic scenes. Her paintings reflect both real and imagined places, combining vibrant color with meticulous technique. During the pandemic, she began incorporating intricate dot patterns into her work, adding energy and rhythm that have become a signature element of her style.

Originally from Maynooth, Ontario, and now living in Prince Edward County, Colleen has shown her work across Ontario and is a regular contributor to Art in the County, where she has won multiple juried awards, including the Carson Arthur Award and Best Landscape at the Art Gallery of Bancroft.

What to Expect

Enjoy an inspiring exhibition of encaustic artwork filled with color, movement, and local charm. Colleen’s pieces capture the tranquility and expansiveness of the Canadian landscape while showcasing the technical beauty of a challenging and ancient medium.

Join us on Saturday, November 15, 2025, from 1:00 to 5:00 PM for Meet the Artist Day—a chance to connect with Colleen, learn about her encaustic process, and gain insight into her creative journey. Light refreshments and wine will be served.

Whether you're a collector, art lover, or curious visitor, Colleen Green’s work will inspire you to slow down, reflect, and rediscover the beauty in nature and imagination.
