On Display in the Main Gallery are works on canvas by Deborah Czernecky and Jim McFarland.


New work in both oil and acrylic by Deborah Czernecky are on display at Morris Gallery.  The diverse scenery Deborah has encountered from coast to coast has heightened her sense of landscape formation and structural forms, colours and patterns. See more of Deborah's work at www.morrisgallery.ca/deborahczernecky

New acrylic's by Jim McFarland are on display at Morris Gallery. Jim paints his larger works in the studio but is often found painting on site, en plein air, where he can capture the ever changing by real colours and light of the west coast scenery around him.  See more of Jim's work at www.morrisgallery.ca/jimmcfarland

Spring is here

The Fawn Lilies are starting to show up at Beacon Hill Park in Victoria, BC.  We have many Spring Florals on display at Morris Gallery including this Watercolour on Canvas by Joanne Thomson.

Tetiana Zakharova

Tetiana Zakharova for the first time has her work on display in Victoria, BC at Morris Gallery.

Check her page on our website to view more of her work and stop by the Gallery to see the exhibit on until April 30th.  www.morrisgallery.ca/artists/tetiana-zakharova

Tetiana is amazed and inspired by the spectacular Pacific Northwest whenever she hikes through the rain forest, watches each unique sunset over the ocean or travels through the B.C. Interior. Nature is plentiful in its gifts of beauty and Tetiana yearns to capture that perfect and blissful scene and transpose it onto canvas.

She observes the world around her in search for unique angles and unreal color combinations to create a disposition of nature in her paintings; as in, a sort of mood that the paintings should bring to the audience.

As she starts each new painting, her heart leaps with joy as she fathoms the beauty that is yet to emerge from her imagination. But beauty is subjective; therefore, Tetiana tries to leave a segment of her art open to interpretation. Part of this can be seen in the near absence of clearly separating lines and boarders in her works. This lets the audience create these lines and is a vital part of her "disposition of nature” as it lets each individual’s unique mind create such lines and boarders and differently interpret the painting’s mood.

Tetiana tries to instill both drama and tranquility of natural landscapes by injecting fluidity, depth and emotion into each image. Her goal is to touch others emotionally and positively through her art; as well, to delve all the different ideas and sceneries in her own mind, for her own enjoyment.
