KENDRA DIXSON

Kendra Dixson (nee Smith) grew up near Williams Lake, BC. An avid traveller and BA graduate, Kendra took her first watercolour workshops in Clear Lake, Manitoba during the summer of 1999 and this medium instantly became her passion. She later moved to Fernie, BC where she held her first solo art show at the Fernie ski hill in 2001.

Kendra now exhibits her original work in art galleries and gift stores across Canada including in Fernie, Jasper, Sun Peaks and Tobermory - all towns she has lived in. Kendra has been welcomed as an artist-in-residence with Mountain Galleries in Jasper and Banff, Alberta.  In 2013, Kendra was commissioned by the Royal Canadian Mint to design two collector coins for the 2014
O, Canada silver coin series.

Today, Kendra is a full time mom, artist and workshop instructor. She continues to enjoy and to be thankful for this creative side of life.
