Working as a field labourer requires dedication to and passion for mother nature. Life in the Prairies highlights this need for perseverance with its ever changing and intense climate. Here we see a lone farm house, poised against a looming storm with a lone lightning strike piercing through the clouds. The soft and calm foreground is met with the intensity of the incoming storm. This painting is completed in muted earth tones including manganese blue, sap green, paynes grey and slate grey.

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.
