Ottawa

In 2015, after living in Ottawa for five years daydreaming about and painting other places, I decided to point my camera and paint brush at the city I actually lived in. Ottawa is Canada's capital city, and it is beautiful! The winters are long and frigid but the blue sky is brilliant and the air is fresh. With a mix of old brick architecture and functional office buildings, I gathered images for a collection of paintings that was shown at the Ottawa Art Gallery's annex at Ottawa City Hall in the spring of 2016 in a solo exhibition entitled Across the Intersection.
