Nora Blansett

I live in Atlantic Canada, have wonderful children, and I’ve been working as an artist for almost twenty years. My primary focus has always been whimsical illustration and intricate design.

My primary mediums are my camera, pen and ink, watercolours and watercolour pencils. I also create collectible art dolls, beaded jewelry, pyrography and miniature quilts.
