The Pines is a impressionistic landscape of the small islands and the wind swept trees on the Big Rideau Lakes in eastern Ontario Canada. These trees are an icon visualization of the harsh constant breeze and open skyes of these big lakes.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT I was born and raised in Kanata, Ontario – a neighbourhood celebrated around the world for its architectural balance with nature. From these beginnings, my art has focused on our interactions with the environment that surrounds and sustains us, using visual media as a means of weaving together the chapters of our life story. Of late, my attention has been drawn to depicting the iconic scenes near my family cottage in Eastern Ontario that are central to my past, present and future. “Every summer and most weekends for as long as I can remember, I have immersed myself in nature – literally planting myself in a scene and waiting for the perfect moment to capture on canvas. This has impacted my life in immeasurable ways, and it will always be central to my artistic expression.” ~Andrew BIOGRAPHY Andrew is a graduate of Sheridan College, with a focus on illustration, advertising and marketing. He has a passion for camping, hiking and adventure travel around the world, but always finds his way back to the spectacular landscapes of Canada – whether to return to his roots along the waterways of the World Heritage Site Rideau Canal, or to explore our country from coast to coast to coast, and discover what lies between. He is proud to call the Glebe home in Ottawa Canada, with his wonderful wife Dominique, sons Logan and Lex, and faithful canine companions Talisker & Skye.
