Bio/Historical Note: Waltraude Stehwien (b. 1931 in Halle, Germany) is an artist whose first career path was learning the ancient art of puppetry in her father's marionette theatre. From an upbringing surrounded by the study and practice of art, Stehwien went on to study stage design and graphic arts at the art academy in Halle. This trained her to switch readily between two and three dimensional planes, which she did throughout her varied career in puppetry and graphic arts. After retirement Waltraude returned to her love of another unique art, that of scissor cutting – the German Scherenschnitt (Schere = Scissor, Schnitt = Cut). Using this method, she has created a large variety of designs, illustrations and even logos, and is regularly called upon to give workshops in this unique art form. Most recently Stehwien has challenged herself to explore the beauty and vastness of the Canadian prairies and other familiar landscapes (2022).

Bio/Historical Note: Roy Kenzie Kiyooka, CM (1926-1994) was a Canadian arts teacher, painter, poet, photographer, and multi-media artist of national and international acclaim.
Bio/Historical Note: Artist workshops have been held at Emma Lake, Saskatchewan, since 1935. Augustus F. (Gus) Kenderdine, an artist trained at the Academie Julian in Paris and an instructor in the fledgling Department of Art at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, established a summer art camp on an eleven-acre boreal forest peninsula on the shores of Emma Lake. He convinced Dr. Walter Murray, first president of the University of Saskatchewan, that the art camp could perform a vital role in the offerings of the department, and in 1936 the Murray Point Art School at Emma Lake was officially incorporated as a summer school program. Participants were teachers and artists who came from all over the province to learn how to teach art in Saskatchewan schools. After Kenderdine's death in 1947, a new generation of Saskatchewan artists came of age or moved into the province, including Kenneth Lochhead, Arthur McKay, Ronald Bloore, Ted Godwin, and Douglas Morton— popularly referred to as the Regina Five.
