About Kathryn's Presentation
Kathryn Amisson presents one artist's life long journey to move her work from Representational to something bordering Abstract Impressionism. A 45 year process with many rewards. About Kathryn Amisson Kathryn Amisson uses a colorful palette to portray everything from the coast to the prairie and all the beauty in between. The impressionistic results speak of her understanding of the essence of the Canadian scene. Born in Glenboro, Manitoba in 1951 then raised from age 6 on British Columbia’s west coast, her love of the Canadian landscape took root early. She has spent over 43 years honing her skills as she interprets the many elements that make our country a favourite destination. Working in acrylic her art has evolved and continues to do so with each passing year. “I care more about what emotions are stimulated when one views my paintings than the details of what one sees. It is about the light, the movement, the drama or the serenity that each piece exudes. I love colour and the power it has to lift the spirit and evoke a joyous atmosphere.” Spending many years replicating the scenes in front of her, Kathryn now takes pride in working more with shape, colour and texture and thus providing the viewer with their own chance to decide what they are seeing. Kathryn has held numerous solo shows and participated in many group exhibitions since 1979. She is represented by the Peninsula Art Gallery in Sidney, Gallery 8 on Salt Spring, Adele Campbell in Whistler and the Stephen Lowe Art Gallery in Calgary. |

It is imperative that the artist reveal through the medium in which he is happiest, what he sees, thinks and feels about his surroundings.
