She studied painting at the Art Students League in New York though she comes _ by her artistic background naturally. Her mother is a professional artist and her father a sculptor.

The colours she uses are “warm, subtle tones tending toward earth tones.” She finds her subject matter along the shore in West Van and in the Gulf islands. “I love nature art most,” she says. “There's always a bunch of flowers hanging somewhere in the house.” Arnold uses dried flowers as subject matter for a lot of her watercolors of flowers. “You can't do water- colours out-of-doors when it is raining, so I started to use dned flowers.” What does devoting herself to art give to her? “I find it very quieting in the hectic world we live in to turn to art and leave the world behind. I find that | create an atmosphere within myself that is. totally renewing and in which | find a great deal of peace.” For Arnold, this show 1s an important one as i 1s her first one-woman show.
