Thelia was born in Montreal, Quebec. For as long as she can remember, Thelia has loved art and creating. She has worked with fibre and textiles and explored various art mediums, finally focusing on clay sculpture. Upon moving to Calgary she simply couldn't resist taking classes in the Metals Program at Alberta College of Art and Design. She has participated in Body Ornament West, the Opera Coat Project and was named the solo artist for the Afrikadey 2005 Festival in Calgary. Thelia has also appeared in several magazines including Coastal Living, "Where in Calgary", and Style Canada, and the Calgary Herald Alberta Artist Series. Her work can be found in some Museum shops as well as galleries and stores in Western Canada. Ti creates what she terms "Jewellery for the Soul". All of her creations have foundation in positive messages & symbols, her one of a kind stonework pieces incorporate gems that are not only beautiful, but complement each other in color, style, and metaphysical healing properties. Currently Thelia is pursuing an Advanced Certification in Color and Crystal Therapy. She feels that not only are ancient healing modalities effective but that the combination of her jewellery and healing certification will facilitate aiding all her clients more comprehensively. Thelia wants all the wearers of her jewellery creations to feel total wellness; healthier in Mind, Body and Spirit. Her work can be found in some Museum shops as well as galleries and stores in Western Canada as well as at her studio. Contact: (403) 949 7759
