A group exhibition as unique as the artists who paint them! Participating artists look to their own backyard for a plethora of inspiration. Paintings featuring the diversity of the landscape hang alongside whimsical still life paintings offering bright and cheerful colours to freshen up your walls.
Paul Jorgensen’s work appeals to a broad range of art lovers, from those who appreciate the technical mastery of his brushwork to those who are drawn to his ability to create scenes filled with imagination and joy. His paintings aren’t simply landscapes; they’re a celebration of life, colour, and fantasy.
Marquis’s work goes beyond just looking beautiful—it tells stories through the materials she uses and the historical elements she includes. The textures, colour shifts, and hidden references come together to create pieces that are rich with meaning. Each painting offers something unique, whether it’s through the figures that seem to emerge from the trees or the landscapes that change as you view them.
This trilogy was featured at the West End Gallery in 1987 and was described by the Edmonton Journal as some of the most haunting pieces ever exhibited at the Edmonton Art Gallery. The trilogy's presence in our gallery underscores its significance and the lasting impact of Blackwood's work.
