John Ogilvy
John Ogilvy's art focuses on landscapes and the subtle ways civilization impacts them, finding beauty in what's typically seen as unsightly. He aims to offer a realistic view of our environment through details often overlooked, creating paintings compiling various experiences and memories. Ogilvy, who has been evolving this theme for over thirty years, draws inspiration from his travels and time spent in his studios in Gabriola Island, B.C., Canada, and Lima, Peru. He plans to keep his artistic theme the same but to continue his current trajectory.
West End Gallery respectfully acknowledges that our gallery is situated on Treaty 6 territory, a traditional gathering place for diverse Indigenous peoples, including the Cree, Blackfoot, Metis, Nakota Sioux, Iroquois, Dene, Ojibway/Saulteaux/Anishinaabe, and Inuit.
