I was raised in a family where my father Thomas Bourgeois was a professional photographer and my mother Anna (Bourque) Bourgeois was an artist and a pianist. Each had the soul of an artist.
My artistic approach is a process of personal research that identifies me as a modern Acadian woman. I often wanted to explore photography as my father did; however, I did not like the technical side of the profession. I only liked the angles, the lighting and the magic of a photo developing in front of my eyes when I was in my father’s dark room. I preferred my mother’s oil paints and brushes. I now create with great love like a photographer, but I go much further than a photographer by creating works of a figurative nature. |
