Kourtney Hope is a self-taught colour realism artist working in soft pastels. She is an animal lover and advocate, which naturally leads her to paint wildlife and pet portraits. She has been working as a professional artist for three years.
Ashley Knight took a chance and opened up a home salon in Airdrie more than nine years ago. It was an opportunity to be home to raise her three children, while still making some income with her background as a hairstylist.
