Brush off that snow and warm up to a brush of vibrant colour instead.

The Plantasia Collection is an ongoing project that highlights botanical art, and showcases it in a series of watercolour paintings by Calgary artist L.C. Cariou.

Another year another series started! This one is bringing it back to flowers and gardens. Which are always some of my favourite paintings to work on! I love the variety of colours, textures, and differing levels of delicacy that I get to interpret through paint. To me there is nothing more appealing to paint than plants and nature.

It has been ages since I have written a post here. I apologize for that but I have been consumed with commissioned paintings since June, which is exciting and I am very thankful for! Fast-forward to December now. I find myself with some time carved out where I can continue working on this Prairies and Lakes (2020- ongoing) series I started many months ago.

This series focuses on Canadian lakes and prairies in Saskatchewan, specifically around Jackfish Lake, which is a short drive north of North Battleford, Saskatchewan.
