About the artist: Light reveals and defines, color creates mood, and shadows harmonize and connect my paintings. This perception has generated many radiant works. Kiff Holland's paintings reveal his experience of light, its ability to reveal and conceal, to define and to cloud, to excite and to soothe. Light and color make mountains, water, trees, people, pots and flowers, faces, and glass eminently paintable. Kiff Holland was born in South Africa where he received his formal art training. In 1975 he immigrated to Canada. In addition to his work as an artist, Kiff Holland teaches in the Design & Illustration Department at the Capilano College.
