Oil on canvas.
25.75x19.75x1.75"
On the Verge of Spring, Oil on Canvas, 18 x 24. Every year at the beginning of March in Canada, we are between seasons. Winter snow is still around but in some places with some milder temperatures, icy lakes have melted and some evidence of spring's imminent approach is visible. This painting is about my desire for winter to be over and spring to be here. I love spring with its colour, new life, hopes and possibilities. This painting, with its brighter sky, shimmering water, elements of new growth is about anticipation.
I am a contemporary artist from Toronto, Canada who is inspired and influenced by past and present Canadian art, Impressionism, and use of colour, and light. Although I have been sketching, drawing and painting all my life, it has only been in the last few years that my passion to create has become a full time endeavour. I have been able to share my deep love of art, the stories that inspire each piece, and their personal meaning. I do hope you are touched by them as well.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Art has always been a big part of my life. As far back as I can remember, I have always drawn, painted, etched and created. I have seen the world as if every image, moment and place could be a drawing or a painting.
I have used many different mediums, such as watercolour, acrylics, and pastels over the years but I am most passionate about oil on canvas. I love vibrant colour, and brush strokes that creates energy.
I am inspired by the places I visit, the people I meet; a walk, a hike, a memory. Many of my pieces are directly influenced by these moments. They inspire me to capture their essence.
