CLIENT GOOD WORD:

..."I would like to share my thoughts on the poster created (every woman makes a difference) by carol weaver for International Women's Day (IWD). (This poster was Commissioned by the Ministry of Women's Equality with the BC Government and distributed all over BC for three separate years).

Art that inspires women to collectively share their thoughts and ideas in positive ways, as this piece does, are indications of how progressive the women's movement has become.

Ms. weaver uses wonderful bright, bold colours in her artwork. I like the connection created by the waves as it moves throughout each of the women. This motion shows unity between women but the different colours in each wave also expresses the uniqueness in every woman..."
