I always love painting landscapes. I find them so peaceful and calming. I wanted to capture that feeling in my painting “Blue Dream”. Still working on my style, I used a few simple colours to depict a colourful landscape scene of a river flowing through a dark blue forest with colourful autumn leaves on the forest floor. The cool blue and green tones mixed with the warm oranges and yellows create an inviting scene. I hope that when people see this painting, they feel the same sense of serenity that I feel when I look at it. Blue Dream is one of my favourite paintings because it reminds me of the solace I found in painting.

Jeff Dillon the Canadian Artist, inspired by the bold colours and brush strokes of Post-Impressionist Artists. His unique style focuses on capturing light, not through the detail of realism, but with gesture, illusion, shape and colour. He offers a personal and distinctive style to the world through his bold use of colours and lines, often symbolic images or subject matter. Objects in the paintings retain their realistic appearance yet have a vibrancy and fluidity about them, unique to his work. Jeff Dillon’s new expression of Post-Impressionism is both beloved and revered in the Canadian and Global Contemporary Art World.
