Annabelle Marquis, "Young soul," 2019
mixed media on canvas, 30” x 30”
The West End Gallery is pleased to present “New Edges,” a solo exhibition of new works by Annabelle Marquis opening on Saturday, November 9th from 1pm – 4pm.
Her artistic approach is deeply tied to colour and composition and the unique way she mixes collage with paint. Each painting is fresh and spontaneous, full of ‘joie de vivre’. Using mixed media collage with gold leaf she is equally happy painting purely abstract or figurative work. Striking colours and strong design are at the heart of her pieces and draw each viewer further in to her world.
"I’m challenging my subjects, revisiting my technique, adding new bright colors, daring to drip over… All in an attempt to venture myself to new edges. Creating change rather than searching for change. Like Picasso famously said: ‘I find and then I search’ " -Annabelle Marquis 2019
