Collection: Elizabeth Lennie

Elizabeth Lennie, a Toronto-based artist, channels her deep connection to water into captivating oil paintings. Her compositions, layered with thin washes and bold impasto, capture the essence of her memories swimming in Ontario's lakes and the Caribbean's azure seas. Through figurative imagery, Elizabeth navigates the dichotomy of Canada's climate, blending abstract and narrative elements to create a visual tapestry of shared experiences and archetypal symbols.

 

With a focus on the interplay between memory and myth, Elizabeth's artwork serves as a reflection of her inner world. Her exploration of past, present, and future unfolds through a soft-focus lens, extracting vibrant colours that transport viewers to idyllic landscapes of childhood. As her paintings find homes in prestigious collections worldwide, Elizabeth continues to delve into the subconscious, scratching notes into her work as symbols of guidance and introspection.
