Denise Cormier Mahoney is a painter and printmaker who’s surfaced designed compositions are infused with memories and dreams. Her work is heavily influenced by nature and each creation speaks of her relationship with the outdoors. These portrayals are intended to promote appreciation for the interconnection with our natural environment.
She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in printmaking and painting from the Nova Scotia College of Art & Design University in Halifax, Nova Scotia and her Master of Art Education from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas.
She received an ARTS NB Creation Grant in 2021 for her ECHOES proposal and was accepted to the Kingsbrae International Artists Residency program in New Brunswick, Canada to begin work on that series. Living the dream, she now works in two studios, one in St Petersburg, Florida and the other in Memramcook, New Brunswick.
Denise is an active member of several art organizations including the Warehouse Arts District in St. Petersburg, Florida, the National Association of Women Artists in NYC, the Tampa Bay Surface Design Guild, Artslink New Brunswick, the Association of Professional French Acadian Artists of Nouveau Brunswick & CARFAC (Canadian Artists Representation).
