Nor Hell A Fury Painting

As of fall, 2022, I am celebrating 10 years as a Painter! I created my first abstract painting 10 years ago in the queen west area of Toronto and immediately fell in love... All artwork has name of painting, dated created and signature on back, may or may not have signature on front. UPDATE: Living and working in Halifax, NS, my homeland after living away for 19years! UPDATE: Now painting in Montreal, studio visit by appointment only...still found often roaming Toronto. Full-time Professional Artist using high quality materials and supplies. Available for commissions. UPDATE: Back in Toronto after a residency in Portugal for Winter/Spring 2018 to paint a new series. Residency in Costa Rica, Winter 2017. Residency in Mexico, Winter 2016. Victoria has been pushing her comfort boundaries through traveling solo in 4 different countries over the past few years. Just her with her small dog Pedro and paint supplies, she pursues a mission to find her authentic being. Victoria allows her surroundings - whether jungle or city - to inspire her and has found each environment brings a distinctly different emotion into her work and peels back another layer revealing her true self. Victoria feels her purpose is to help people reconnect to their wild side, to a sense of freedom and excitement...to get their imagination flowing. "I want them to see what they want to see, to feel alive when they spend time with my paintings. To uplift them and remind them of the importance of adventure" She creates large, bold abstract paintings to show how beautiful it is to just let go, to reveal your real feelings and true self. Her work is inspired purely by the colours she comes across in her daily experience, architecture and her expeditions into the wilderness. Starting with a more traditional approach with her technique at the base layers, she creates the rest with an unplanned movement and flow of her chosen tools leading to a very raw and organic feeling. Victoria grew up in Nova Scotia and now resides and works in Toronto, Ontario. She has been involved in many forms of art from a very young age but spends most days painting. Her earlier works focusing mainly on Nature Landscape, she has evolved into the realm of Abstract Expressionism calling upon one of her favourite quotes from Kazimir Malevich 'art need not represent the things of the world; rather, it could exist in or for itself'.
