Annette Gaffney

Acrylics on canvas
Exhibiting in:
  • Studio Tour
  • Summer Solstice Art Market

www.whimsicalandfineart.com
A smile is what I want when people view my work; high-colour acrylic canvases of stylized landscapes, scenes and themes.  Representational and detailed in many ways, yet the perspective is quirky, emphasized by vibrant hues and pureness of pigment, it is a visual medley of a lifetime of influences. I  approach my favourite subjects in two different ways: Outlined and theme-based and whimsical/illustrative. What unifies the work is the primary palette.  Having worked with school children and those with special needs, I believe in the therapeutic value of creativity. This inspired me to pursue my psychology degree toward becoming an art therapist.
I hope that viewers feel the joy of life and humour my work is meant to convey.
