Original art is an essential part of our human experience, as it reflects our deepest selves and is a way of preserving our stories for generations. It tells the nuanced stories of our lives, connecting us to human emotion and fostering a sense of community.
One beautiful example of the power of original art is The Alberta Bears an acrylic painting by Peter Wyse.

Through strokes of colour and imagination, art like The Alberta Bears captures the essence of different phases of life and immortalizes them. It serves as a reminder of the transformative power of art in our lives and encourages us to support the artists and galleries that bring such visions to life. We should fill our homes with stories painted in the vibrant hues that reflect our experiences.

It's a surface that not only supports the weight of the acrylic but also the weight of the narrative it carries.

Join us in celebrating the artists that make such connections possible. Visit a gallery, attend an art show, and seek art that tells your story. Together, we can ensure that the tradition of original art continues to thrive and enrich our lives. Supporting original art means supporting a legacy of creativity, passion, and human connection. Let's keep the tradition alive!
