“The energy, the movement,
the juxtapositions of light and
textures inspire me to paint.”

Horizontally!
MICHELLE HESLOP
The natural beauty of BC is my muse. As an objective observer, it's the
connections I see in nature every day that spill out onto the paper. Constantly
fueled by curiosity, I paint what I observe in a reduced, simplified way. Most
of my paintings start with water in a mop brush, laid down in a wet-onwet technique with either ink or watercolour. I even collect Pacific seawater
to use in some of my pieces – the salt makes lovely sediment. Nature is
a synthesis of interconnected details. With paint and pens, I attempt to
distill this complexity into simplified shapes, forms, colours and textures.
I've become such an acute observer on my daily walks that now when I
experience the Pacific Ocean, I see washes of Paynes Grey with splashes
of turquoise and distinct lines where ripples once were. •
