Maryse Giroux
She grew up in a flooring and decorating retail business. There she discovered a taste for colours and the impact they have on our moods. At the age of seventeen, she was introduced to weaving. This art allows her a wide range of creations. She also has a training as a chartered professional accountant which leads her to analyze and want to understand how to design textiles. This thirst for learning has led her to take several training courses in Quebec, Ontario and even in the United States. Also on different types of looms such as 4 harnesses, multiharnesses and even Jacquard. His taste for weaving is such that his husband Denis Séguin created the Séguin Looms to facilitate his art. She is a member of the Conseil des Métiers d'Art du Québec. Finally, she has been sharing her knowledge in weaving since 2012 and her involvement in sharing knowledge in weaving is growing with the offer of different group courses throughout Quebec and private and now even through online courses.
