Lorna Kemp was born in Norquay, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Her formal art training includes the University of Alberta, Red Deer College and
R & F Encaustics in Seattle, Washington as well a bevy of workshops and experimentation.
Lorna is recognized as one of Canada's most up and coming encaustic painters and her work is well known internationally.
While her subjects are universal, she excels in portraying abstract renderings. She is perhaps best known for her work in and around Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Lorna's technique includes a tradition of strong texture and design with strong use of colour and form, with a uniquely individual personal style.
Lorna’s paintings can be found in many provinces in Canada, as well as Norway, England and the USA.
