'Views from a Broad'-By Gwen Doyle
…Landscape & Life - in Pen & Ink & Acrylic

From my first Exhibit in Port Credit, in 1948…a pencil drawing on our bathroom' wall; through the evolution of my life - from student, teacher, Salvation Army Officer, wife & stay-at-home Mom, volunteer teacher, Insurance salesman, community service worker, community volunteer to Grandmother and older 'Broad'… drawing & painting and artistic projects (cartoons, crewel-work/embroidery, hand-quilting, murals, portraits, soft-sculpture, wood-carving and writing etc) have filled my need to express myself creatively and provided an escape from reality.

My passion is Drawing- especially in black Ink…the deliberate, defining lines moving across the blank page to create contrast, shape, texture and life - en plein air or from photographs.

Acrylics are perfect for my lifestyle…No smell! Quick drying…essential with small grandchildren and long-haired dogs and when storing your 'works-in-progress'. And perfect for my style of painting…creating images from the distance to foreground …layering & building the depth, shapes, textures and highlights and experimenting with colours.

' Views' from my Life include: Landscape…BC, Northeastern Ontario, Northwestern Quebec, Newfoundland, County Kerry & Clare in Ireland, the Highlands of Scotland and Llanbedr/Snowdonia National Park in Wales and Life… people of all ages and animals- wild and domestic.
