Colleen Bessel
Colleen Bessel is a photo and visual artist residing in Port Moody. Born and raised in Saskatchewan, Colleen spent most of her adult life in the corporate world living in several different cities and provinces. This prairie girl moved to beautiful British Columbia after retiring in 2010 to be near her daughter and granddaughters- who are the light of her life.
Recently remarried, she and her husband split their time between Port Moody and their cottage on Galiano Island. Every summer she participates in the Galiano Saturday Market where you can find her latest works of art or photography. Her work is also available at local shops at both locations.
