Calmness at the lakehouse after a busy family day. This painting features Lake Rosseau in Muskoka Ontario. The moon is bright and the stars are clearly visible. In nature when artificial light is absent, the cosmic palette above is always striking. When you have the opportunity to view the night sky without any urban interference it is inspiring to see the vibrancy of the night sky above. The sky and lake are both painted in layers of deep cerulean blue. The far reaching white pine is detailed in sap green and brown iron oxide. The soft forms and delicate linework is indicative of my early work prior to the development of my iconic linework method.

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.
