Alice S. Helwig
“I am painting the landscape that is familiar to me, the imagery that I have been working with has become spiritual and dreamlike. The images are quick glances we have of the landscape as we move through it.” |
Alice S. Helwig, a professional southern Albertan artist for over twenty years, she uses acrylic and utilizes techniques such as glazing and under painting to explore the prairie landscape. Themes of alienation, awe, personal epiphanies and prayerfulness emerge. The fleeting moment transcends itself to reveal that feeling, that truth, which we intuitively understand but find difficult to articulate. These are visual poems which insinuate the eternal into our understanding of the immediate. |
