Glenn Payan |
|
Bright, simplified, dramatic landscapes epitomize Glenn Payan's place in Canadian art. Showing at Canada House Gallery since 2005, this is Payan's second exhibition. His distinctively smooth brush strokes and joyous palette create an immediate sense of delight. Payan is continually inspired by coastal scenes, shorelines and the Sea to Sky highway. Equally inspired by mountains, Payan strives to capture the drama of high peaks, bluebird days and vast forests. This exhibition also includes works motivated by gentle rolling hills and farmland vibrant with life. |

The thought of finger painting brings memories of childhood giddiness to most mature adults. But rarely do thoughts of one of Canada's most established and widely exhibited artists and finger painting coexist…. until now. Rod Charlesworth, part of Canada House Gallery for over 20 years, continues to capture powerful, dramatic landscapes with more than brushstrokes. Letting his passion for capturing Canada's beauty guide him, he literally digs into his paint and uses his hands and fingers to create the drama. This exhibition of 40+ paintings will show Charlesworth's great range and scope; featuring scenes from the Okanagan, Maritimes, Rockies, cozy neighbourhoods and winter fun. |
