About the Artist
Dian’s background is in the visual arts as an educator with The Toronto District School Board, specializing in photography. She has had extensive photographic darkroom experience working with black and white film and prints. Over the years during several sabbatical leaves Dian has travelled across the globe learning about different world cultures and visually recording a great diversity of societies.
Dian has been coming to Southampton since she was a child with her father, Jim Watton, who was born & raised here. Dian’s husband and fellow traveller, Doug, have permanently relocated here from Toronto. Her photographs and paintings can be found in private collections.
