Vickie Newington
Vickie Newington is an experienced artist, whose love of creating started as a small child. Vickie’s favourite media are fibre and glass, as they are versatile and very expressive, with great contrast from one medium to another. What one medium lacks in qualities, the other one seems to fill in.
Vickie began her art education at the Alberta College of Art and Design, then graduated from the four year very intensive City & Guilds Design and Embroidery course from London, England. When she had the opportunity to accept an artist residency in Yukon, she had the chance to try coldworking and fusing glass and fell in love with it. She has been exploring possibilities in seamlessly combining the two media ever since; with few other artists
integrating such disparate materials, she is a pioneer in her field.
Vickie plays and works full time as an artist and has pieces in many private collections.
