Fall is over, and the wait for winter snow is on. Though the forest is asleep, we are reminded of its summer lushness by transient crimson leaves scattered along the forest floor. The trunk of this paper birch tree is painted in layers of graphite grey and milky titanium white. The maple leaf is painted in rich magenta and pyrrole red pigments. Carbon black linework makes this piece sing.

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.
