Looking for the sky, we see a perched oriole ready to take off. This painting was inspired by the orioles that migrate through my local forests during the summertime. While they love a hearty feeder, they flock to forests to find insects and other foraged foods in the late summer. They are marvelously vibrant and the contrast of their carbon black and cadmium orange feathers sets them apart from the rich green summer colours.

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.
