"This is not just another art society, nor is it intended to replace any existing art society. It is an organization formed to unite all the artists in Canada..."

View our current and ongoing exhibitions of artworks by Federation of Canadian Artists members:
Marika Morissette is a Burnaby-based visual artist whose vibrant acrylic pour paintings celebrate movement, colour, and discovery. Her lifelong connection to the arts began with childhood oil painting classes, music, and theatre, later balancing creative exploration with a 20-year career as an executive assistant after earning an honours B.A. in Communication Studies from Concordia University. In 2019, she discovered fluid art and was captivated by its unpredictability and sense of wonder. Since leaving the corporate world in 2021 to focus on art and family, Marika has developed a distinctive abstract expressionist style using blowing, puddle pours, swipes, and balloon kisses to create colourful cells and dynamic patterns. She is an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, including the Fraser Valley and Nanaimo Chapters, as well as several regional arts organizations. Her work has appeared in numerous juried exhibitions, and her painting “Birch Kaleidoscope” received second place in the nationwide Golden Celebration Juried Art Exhibition at Gallery 1710. Through her art, Marika seeks to share freedom, joy, and inspiration with others.

Our reputable history & the Group of Seven
André Biéler and members of the Group of Seven aimed to unify the voices of the artist - strong enough to be heard from Nanaimo to Nova Scotia

The FCA soon had chapters across the country and was one of the main forces behind the formation of the "Canada Council"
Driven by the dynamic leader, Allan W. Edwards, expansion began, causing a renewal of activity in Western Canada
Opened the first completely artist-sponsored "gallery, workshop and studio" in the country to sell original artwork and sculpture
