Botanical Blue Painting

Madeleine Lamont received her BFA Degree from York University, Toronto, Canada in 1990. and Commercial Art and Design diploma from Algonquin College, Ottawa, Canada. She has exhibited her work in museums and galleries both Nationally and Internationally and has been the recipient of numerous grants and awards, from the Toronto Arts Council, the Ontario Arts Council and the Canada Arts Council. She has received public commissions from the Art On Public Lands, Visual Arts Centre of Clarington and the Koffler Gallery in Toronto. Most recently her work was purchased by the Government of Canada’s Department of Foreign Affairs to be installed in the New Nato Chancery Building in Brussels Belgium. Her work is regularly published in prestigious art and design publications such as Canadian House and Home, Style at Home and Cmagazine and the Globe and Mail Her work has been showcased in numerous film and television shows such as Cityline and Steven and Chris. She was the co-founder and curator of The House Project Collective which was recently profiled in a documentary series titled "Artist of the 90's, a look at the collective art movement in Toronto during the 1990 and early 2000’s. " Her work has been written about and reviewed by some of the most influential art critics in Canada, including Daniel Baird, Gary Micheal Dault, formerly with The Globe and Mail, Claire Christy, Silvie Fortain and Toronto Star's Peter Goddard. Goddard described Lamont's Botanical paintings as "great romantic gestures... Her aim to piece together an organic beauty in a fleeting psychological moment is done so sumptuously". Baird described her large canvases as "luxuriant and expressive" and her miniatures as "pristine and lyrical." For the forth year Canadian Celebrity designer Brian Gluckstein featured her paintings in the Princess Margret Hospital Lottery Grand Prize 2018 ShowHome. I started this Botanical series almost 20 years ago for a solo exhibition at Red head gallery in Toronto, titled "Den Bloom Hoff". Inspired by the Dutch Masters as a place of departure I see this work as as a kind of still life psychological portraiture.
