Biography!!!!
Diane Hawley is a Canadian-American fine artist with over 50 years of experience in drawing and painting, specializing in oil-based photorealism and impressionist works. Her art is inspired by still life, landscapes, interiors, florals, and her travels.
A graduate of Concordia University in Montreal with a degree in Studio Art and a minor in Art History, Diane has exhibited in cities including Montreal, Quebec City, St. Lambert, Vancouver, and Los Angeles. She began painting commissioned works at the age of 15—one of which was gifted to a Member of Parliament and formerly displayed in the Parliament of Canada in Ottawa.
Her lifelong passion for creativity also extends to illustration and art direction. After raising five children, Diane returned to oil painting with renewed focus and spiritual depth, creating work that explores themes of light, nature, gratitude, and human connection.
She continues to expand her artistic vision through travel and advanced training, and was recently accepted into a workshop at the prestigious Charles Cecil Studio in Florence, Italy. Diane is currently building her online presence, preparing a new body of work for gallery representation, and illustrating a children’s book rooted in the theme of gratitude.
She lives in the North East where she balances her creative pursuits with caregiving for her family. Outside of the studio, Diane enjoys sailing, travel, gourmet food, and wine studies.
