Sacred art on display at Kerrobert Courthouse Gallery
By Joan Janzen
The Kerrobert Courthouse Gallery is showcasing its first art show for 2024. A reception will be held on the evening of January 24th when Tianna Williams will present her Sacred Art. Tianna is an oil painter with a passion for making new and unique Catholic art, with her paintings focused on the saints.
She is looking forward to sharing her story and meeting those who attend. Prints of her paintings can be purchased at her online shop. Each new painting is shared with a short time-lapse video of the painting process.

Tianna does beautiful work and will be showcasing 30 paintings. “I will be sharing all of my newest pieces as well as my best sellers and a few personal favourites,” she explained.
She makes her home in Bruno, Sask. where she has a small but functional office and studio space in the basement of her home. Her love of painting began when she was a little girl, and she hasn’t stopped ever since.
“Galleries are a new adventure for me,” she confessed. “Before this, I have only had the opportunity for two galleries as part of the annual Advent retreat at St. Therese Institute in Bruno. However, I have attended many Catholic conferences and retreats over the years where I have been able to display my work and share the stories behind the paintings.”
While most of her customers are from Canada and the USA, she has shipped prints as far away as Australia and Thailand. “I try to price my prints so that anyone can afford to bring beautiful art into their home while still covering the growing costs of operating a business,” she said. “Beauty can touch hearts in a way that words sometimes cannot.”
Tianna said she loves the process of painting and enjoys the silence while she focuses on what she’s doing. “I enjoy taking something that is blank and formless and giving it colour and shape and beauty. Most of all, I love journeying with the people that I paint.”
“And finally, it brings me a lot of joy to share my paintings with the world and to receive feedback on how they have inspired and uplifted so many people. It is such a gift to be able to do something I love and have it also bless others.”
