Modern abstract, oil on canvas painting, titled “Summertime III” by Michelle Hénault, a conceptual Fine artist. Signed on front bottom right, also, signed, dated and titled on back; measuring approximate 30" H x 36" W x 1.5” D. Gallery wrapped, finished sides, dated circa 2019. Michelle Hénault is a Conceptual Fine Artist, born in Lachute, Quebec, living and working in Montreal since 1991. She completed a Bachelor degree in Fine Arts at UQAM in 1998. After exploring sculpture and photography, she dedicated herself to oil painting. She has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows over the last fifteen years. In 2010, she moved to Scotland with her partner for two years. Since returning to Montreal, she has devoted her time to oil painting and her work has flourished. Inspired by her many travels, her work explores landscapes as a contemplative territory. The desire to revisit past voyages through painting and to recapture the sentiments she experienced in various places was her primary motivation for producing these landscapes. "For the last fifteen years I have explored the reconstruction of landscapes in my painting. My practice is concerned with our relation to land as the memory of place. A land can be occupied, shared, transformed and dreamed, idealized. The land, as homeland or an idyllic land to travel to, where the memory is presupposed. Through my art, I explore that memory of travel, the journeys I made and the ones I dreamed. When contemplating a landscape and experiencing the change of light or atmosphere we realize the passage of time. As explorers from bygone eras, seeking unknown lands, my work proposes a return to the essential…that the French call ‘le bapteme de la solitude’. It is a unique sensation, and it has nothing to do with loneliness, for loneliness presupposes memory. Here, in this wholly mineral landscape lighted by stars like flares, even memory disappears; nothing is left but your own breathing and the sound of your heat beating. A strange, and by no means pleasant, process of reintegration begins inside you, and you have the choice of fighting against it, and insisting on remaining the person you have always been, or letting it take its course. For no one...

Andre Philippe Cote (Canadian, born 1955). Original mixed media oil painting on canvas. Colorful abstract composition with impasto elements. Signed and dated 1984 to lower right. ...

Acquired from 2011 Solo exhibition at a gallery in Vancouver Canada titled "The Road to Abstraction " by mixed-media artist Judith Myers. This exhibition of works is the inspired result of a recent trip to Holland where she participated in a workshop on a canal boat studying in depth the history of the Dutch Masters and practicing traditional techniques using contemporary materials. Judith Myers was born in Toronto, Canada and trained in Modern dance before embarking on a career in visual art. Her passion for the abstract expressionists gave inspiration to move to Europe in 1980 where the artistic ambiance was prevalent and conducive for a Canadian to study and integrate with the artists of the European community. Arriving in Amsterdam with a background in teaching modern dance was the introduction that paved the way to being welcomed into learning ceramics, drawing, painting and mixed media. It took only a short time before her work was on display in exhibitions in Holland, France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. She is presently living and working in Vancouver, British Columbia Exhibition History 2013 Tate Gallery, Port Hope...
