In this spirited composition, I've melded the vivid spontaneity of expressionism with the delicate nuance of impressionism, all layered with an abstract perspective.

I painted this one with my palette knives. I find it feels like a breath of fresh air.
Lately, more than ever before I feel like when I need to relax, I reach for the outdoors. It has a certain magic that can be like a warm freshness or something. Can't explain it much in words. It was inspired by the feeling of just a relaxed freshness gained from a brisk walk.

As an artist, I am drawn to the natural world and the way light interacts with it. In my latest painting, I depict a landscape that features a dock stretching over water, with a striking viridian green laser beam running through the wood. This painting represents the importance of natural light in our lives and the impact that human activity has on our environment.
In recent years, we have seen a decline in dark skies due to increased light pollution. The neon hues caused by a colder moon are a changing sign of the way there are fewer and fewer dark skies near us. In this painting, I aim to highlight the hues of light that seem artificial to underscore the importance of preserving dark skies.
As inhabitants of this planet, we have a role to play in reducing our impact on the environment. By being mindful of our energy consumption and making small changes in our daily lives, we can help preserve the natural beauty of our world and protect it for future generations. Let us all take responsibility for our actions and work towards a brighter future for all.

My acrylic painting is a celebration of the beauty found in unlikely places. Inspired by the sinking kayak dock at Riel Park in St-Albert, I was struck by the surreal view of reality created by the moss floating over the water and the dock.
The distant shores of the Sturgeon River and the clouds above add depth to the painting, making it feel like a flatbed. As I approached the dock, I noticed that it had become a home to ducks, which added to the curious and surreal scene.
Through my painting, I hope to capture the beauty of nature's ability to adapt and thrive in unexpected places. The sinking kayak dock, once seen as a problem, has become a haven for the local wildlife. The moss and the ducks have transformed it into something beautiful and unexpected. Art has the ability to highlight the beauty in our surroundings, even in the most unlikely of places. This painting is a tribute to the power of nature and the importance of finding beauty in the unexpected.

Copper trees line the walkway in this beautiful landscape painting by Mariam Qureshi. The Painting called Penny parks was made with pennies, oil paint, and oil pastels and is a study in recyclable resources and how to make art a means of living. The park scene is at once whimsical and calming, with the bright copper pennies adding a touch of whimsy. The darker tones throughout the painting create a sense of depth and richness, while the lighter hues add a sense of peace and tranquillity. This is a truly unique painting that would be a wonderful addition to any home or office.

This oil painting is titled "Fragmented Reality" and was created by Mariam Qureshi. It was painted in oil paint live at a senior's home during a community effort for Alzheimer's. The painting has fragmented pieces of mountains, yellow flowers, swirling hills, purple in the sunsets and orange in the trees. Mariam Qureshi asked those who were living with Alzheimer's to describe their favourite memory and as they recalled family trips to the mountains and ski vacations, the artist created this piece. This painting is a beautiful reminder of pleasant memories and is sure to brighten any room it is hung in.
