Talking with Vincent

Artist Reception: February 10, 2 - 4 PM

Inspired by reading the letters of Vincent Van Gogh to his brother Theo, this new body of work inserts selected phrases from those letters into 8 new drawings and watercolour paintings that showcase views of my downtown Toronto neighbourhood and my take on the sunflower motif. Phrases from my own collection of letters are added to create a present-day conversation with Vincent.

October 11 - November 17, 2019.
Sivarulrasa Gallery, 34 Mill street, Almonte, Ontario

I will be showing 5 new coloured pencil drawings and 4 watercolour paintings inspired by my one month artist residency in Tilting, Fogo Island, Newfoundland, Sept. 2018.

Newfoundland is such an inspiring place. While there, I walked a circular path down to a cove, past the family gardens, out to the point, by the pond with the vibrating stones, to then loop back past the bog and return to the studio. I walked this circular path over and over again, stopping to draw, paint, photograph and observe.

These works grew out of that experience.
