Hélène Girard
Hélène began her northern experience when she moved to the Northwest Territories from Québec
22 years ago. Creativity has always been part of Hélène's life. She began formal violin lessons at
the age of four. Although she still enjoys music, she has developed a new and consuming passion.
Inspired by the beauty surrounding her, Hélène began painting as a way to express her feelings
about the North. With her distinctive style, her mission is to bring the North to the viewer's attention.
Quickly disappearing, this magnificent part of our world needs to win the heart of the people. She
participates in numerous art competitions and exhibitions throughout Canada and the US, receiving
many prestigious awards. Hélène presently resides in Gatineau, Québec.
