"I approach painting as a form of communicating an ever-changing relationship with place" - Steven Armstrong
A West Coast painter, Steven Armstrong endeavours to create a sense of place in his paintings instead of mere interpretations. By visiting an inspiring location several times he’s able to expand his connection and familiarity to it and layer the painting accordingly. His drive to pick up on the human connection and experience with the natural landscape is shared within his paintings. These cherished landscapes are invitingly suggestive and beckon the viewer to let the eye wonder through the painting and fill in the details according to their own personal experiences, thus creating an additional layer of appreciation and connection.
