Growing up in the Prairies of Manitoba, Dawn Schmidt has always been captivated by the vastness and drama of the skies. Storm clouds brewing in the distance, fields of bright canola, and endless horizons are part of her visual vocabulary. As she has explored Winnipeg, she has come to appreciate the city’s unique landmarks and iconic sites, integrating them into her work to reflect its energy and character. Dawn is currently a member of the Manitoba Society of Artists and the Federation of Canadian Artists. She was represented at Pulse Gallery for five years and completed a three-month Artist in Residency program at The Fairmont Hotel in Winnipeg. Her work currently hangs in the Premium Plaza Lounge at Richardson Airport.
