Gathering Under the Arc Doreen PalmeSalt Spring Island, BC À propos de l'artiste À propos de l'artiste Doreen PalmeSalt Spring Island, BC Born in the former East Germany (1968), after the Wall came down, and having completed my studies in economics, I moved to West Germany where I worked for 20 years as a credit risk analyst. My first visit to Canada in 2009 changed my life because I fell in love with this country. Since the beginning of 2017, Salt Spring has been home to my husband and me. With the change to our lives, I found my way from economics and numbers to carving and creating with driftwood, thus developing my deep passion for nature and art. Suivez sur les sociaux
