MOOSE MOUNTAIN PROVINCIAL PARK - Kelli Fox loved the Artist Colony at Moose Mountain Provincial Park so much, she jumped at the chance to go there for a second week at the end of August. 

This is Fox’s first year at the colony, and she enjoyed the cheerful outlook of the people that came to visit and the amazing talent of all the artist’s that attend. 

Fox was born and raised in Ontario. She has four adult children who now live across Canada and the United States. Fox found her way to Regina and now calls this province home. 

Seven years ago, after retiring, Fox went on a vacation to Huntsville, Ont. A half day course was offered to do alcohol ink painting, so she decided to try the new form of art. She enjoyed it so much she has continued with it. 

The alcohol ink art grew from there, although Fox does use different mediums in her pieces such as acrylic.  

She loves to use vibrant colours and that shows in her paintings.  

Fox has only been painting for seven years, but her art is stunning. She has them displayed at local restaurants and attends other shows. She was at the Summer Bash in Regina just recently. 

Fox paints everything from cows to furniture and parrots to landscapes, but also does portraits of people. It all depends on her mood that day and on which piece she might paint that day. 

Her talent does not stay with painting. She enjoys making beaded bracelets as well, again using an array of colours. 

While at the colony, Fox stays at Kenosee Lake in her R.V., along with her little dogs. They are used to travelling, not only for camping, but they also ride along on her motorcycle. 

Fox looks forward to her time at the colony. She has a great deal of praise for the artists there, and genuinely enjoys the small-town atmosphere. 

“We have a lot of talent in this province,” said Fox. “My art makes me happy, and I just love doing it,” said Fox.
