"Bold Living Paintings"

Bold Living Paintings - - - A Powerful Pairing of Two Talented Artists - - Odette La Roche and Linda Anderson

Odette La Roche – Saanich, BC

Living paintings that move and shimmer as the light changes, from break of day to lights out at night. Odette paints in oils with calculated use of contrasting colours and extreme lighting for maximum dramatic effects. The viewer enters the painting and is carefully led through the piece, discovering the magnified shades found in nature which otherwise go unnoticed. Applying one hue over the other with a palette knife adds to the compositional depth in the paintings, especially the oversized paintings. It creates textured tapestries of colours. You are invited to enter.

Linda M. Anderson – Sooke, BC

Linda creates bold landscapes, seascapes, florals and still lifes in her original and innovative style of painting with only vertical brushstrokes.

Visual depth is achieved through the layering of transparent colour combinations.
