BLUE CLOUDS

BLUE CLOUDSNeil Patterson paints in an impressionistic style using brush strokes thick with oil paint, much like spreading peanut butter on a slice of bread. Every stroke of his brush leaves textured marks on the canvas that catch the light and change the way you see the painting under different conditions. Neil paints on canvas and linen stretched or mounted on board either framed or gallery wrapped. Each painting is sprayed with UV archival spray.

Drawing inspiration from the mixed woodlands of his childhood and the rugged landscapes of Northern Saskatchewan

refined craftsmanship

His art transforms everyday scenes into bold

distill out what is unnecessary

imaginative landscape paintings that capture the spirit and energy of the Canadian West Coast

With bold colour and dynamic textures

His early inspiration came from his father’s interest in art

While good design and quality are key

In the way that our minds can fuse together different memories into one event

unmistakeable and peerless personal style
