About the Item
Artist Comments
Inspired by a summer morning along the Kanaka Creek in Maple Ridge, Canada, artist Jo Galang rendered this verdant landscape with soft light washing over the trees and grasses. "The beautiful golden leaves that morph into deep vibrant greens seem to be lighting the entire landscape," says Jo, "transforming it into a dream-like atmosphere where one could easily get lost in its entirety."
About the Artist
Artist Jo Galang expresses a quiet nostalgia in her airy interpretations of the landscapes and waterways of the Pacific Northwest. Her soft oil paintings capture the meditative sounds of rivers and waterfalls flowing past her easel. During the summer, she spends as much time as possible outside creating plein air sketches and studying the light on the landscape. As a young art student in the Philippines, Jo was privileged to study with the renowned painter Danilo Dalena, who she says encouraged her to be the artist she is today. "I believe my art looks simple enough that people have no idea how much time I have spent working on it," she says. When she is not painting, Jo and her husband enjoy taking road trips, playing cards and finding creative ways to spend time with their granddaughter.
