Art Description (What inspired you to create the artwork?) | The inspiration for this painting is a subject that I have gone to over and over in different mediums in the past several years. Lawren Harris’, 1930 Davis Strait Is a painting I connected with at a young age. It holds a quiet mystery and connection to the Canadian landscape for me. This connection to the Group of Seven, to painting, to nature, and to driving north to camp with my family have been constants in my upbringing. In this last year, I made my first trip to Europe, which was an expansive experience for me. In this painting, I have imposed a Van Gogh sky in the background of Harris’ iconic view of the North, bringing together these two continents, both on canvas, and within myself. |
