Nell Bradshaw, "Totem Pole Collection II,"

oil on board, 30" x 45"

Madrona Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of 14 specially chosen works from Nell Bradshaw. Bradshaw was born in California in 1904 and later moved to Canada at the age of 9. Largely self-taught, Bradshaw was inspired by A.Y. Jackson, Tom Thomson, Paul Klee, Van Gogh, and First Nations carvers. Bradshaw began painting full-time in 1964 and would establish herself as a skilled artist whose totem paintings were known worldwide. This will be the first major solo exhibition of Bradshaw's work held in over twenty years and will highlight the works that brought her international recognition.
