Marsha Kennedy was born and lives on the Great Plains in southern Saskatchewan, Canada. During her formative years as a professional artist she moved to Toronto, Ontario where she received her MFA in print media in 1981 from York University. She lived and worked as an artist in Toronto for eleven years before returning to Regina, where she currently resides. She retired from teaching at the University of Regina in 2016 to focus on her art practice.
Marsha Kennedy's artist talk will focus on work influenced by her son from his birth in 1988 to his sudden death in 2022. She will include images from her exhibition titled PONDering, which was shown at Slate Gallery in October and November 2025. The paintings in her latest exhibition represent her process toward meaning, understanding, and healing from the pain of her loss.
