In a new series of paintings entitled “Vancouver Gardens”, Eri Ishii makes a homage to her adopted home, Vancouver. Each painting was based on scenes from local gardens and parks, and is carefully constructed over time with layers of lush oil paint to explore their beauty and strength. The paintings were created without a preliminary drawing or underpainting, allowing the artist to create a soft and open surface that invites viewers to step into the work.
I’m thrilled to announce that I was interviewed by Sheryl Mackay of CBC radio North by Northwest. It was a wonderful experience as Sheryl is so warm and approachable. I felt like I was talking to a friend. To add to the thrill, I got to meet her in person as she came by to Ian Tan Gallery right after the interview and I happened to be there! All in all, it was a five star day.
