SUMMARY:Terra : The Good Earth by Olga Kay-Grigoriev and Erin Thibault
DESCRIPTION:Galerie Old Chelsea is pleased to present the art by two of ten Galerie Old Chelsea’s owners\, Erin Thibault & Olga Kay-Grigoriev who are excited to share their love of the natural world. Whether it’s the light cascading through the trees\, as Erin captures in her paintings\, or the subtle details of a single leaf carved out of wood by Olga\, both artists give homage to the beauty of nature that is all around us in the Gatineau Hills. \nErin’s work is inspired by her deep connection to nature\, to wild spaces and\nto the natural world around her. Her paintings are rather dreamy\, as she paints the essence of the subject rather than its exacting details.  As Picasso famously said…” I begin with an idea and it becomes something else”. Erin’s works will often start with a particular scene and at a certain point will organically shift into an entirely different image. She allows whatever is claiming the canvas to do so\, letting go of the reigns and allowing the essential to come through. She can often see it emerging and flows with it.  She considers herself an intuitive painter\, working in an impressionist style. \nFollowing a fulfilling career in education\, Olga turned to wood sculpture as a new way of artistic expression. She trained first with a fellow artist to discover the potential of various mechanical and hand-carving tools\, then took courses in sculpture in Florence\, Italy\, and also life drawing at the Ottawa School of Art\, Olga now spends time in her Quebec studio putting the learning to practice in a process of playful experimentation as new ideas come to mind. \nShe enjoys working with wood as it evokes a banquet of sensory stimulation and a warmth only nature can convey. Carving is a satisfying process which offers sufficient challenge and risk to keep her interest. Olga’s material comes from fallen trees on her property or from the surrounding Gatineau Hills. Her muse is the journey of life\, through love and loss\, joy and sorrow and all the stories in between. Animals\, people and objects in nature are the subject of her work. Her pieces reside in many homes and gardens. She welcomes special commissions\, for in art\, just as in life\, anything is possible. \nIn addition to the vernissage on Saturday May 10\, Erin et Olga will be present at the gallery on the following days: \nErin: Friday May 2 from noon to 3:00 pm. / Friday May 9 and 16 from 4:00 pm to 6:00 / Saturday May 3 from noon to 3:00 / Saturday May 17 from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm \nOlga: Sunday May 4\,11 and 18 from 1:00pm to 4:00 pm

SUMMARY:Land of my Dreams - Solo Exhibition by Lucie Olson: Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:Lucie Olson’s Land of my Dreams exhibition displays her latest paintings\, most of them done in oil and cold wax medium\, which she is thrilled to share with local art enthusiasts. \nLucie is a Gatineau-based artist who graduated from the Fine Arts Diploma Program at the Ottawa School of Art in 2022. Since then\, her curiosity led her to discover oil and cold wax medium\, which lends itself well to a loose application approach devoid of precision. She  loves the ability to create layers of colors and then subtract or scrape off sections to reveal the beautiful colors underneath. She says it’s like playing a game of hide and seek. \nShe is intrigued by abstraction and often explores it in her creations. “I mostly paint from my imagination without any preconceived ideas\, letting colours and shapes emerge on the surface. The evolving scenery changes constantly\, like in a meandering dream.  I am a nature-lover and most of my compositions inevitably morph into recognizable natural elements such as forests\, vegetation\, mountains and water.”

SUMMARY:Les secrets du vent\, Anne-Yvonne Jouan - Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:L’exposition « Les secrets du vent » de l’artiste Anne-Yvonne Jouan sera présentée à l’Espace Pierre-Debain\, du 9 avril au 1 juin 2025. \nAnne-Yvonne Jouan crée des jardins à partir de papier et de végétaux séchés\, récoltés dans son environnement à l’île d’Orléans. Ses œuvres fascinantes témoignent des mouvements de la nature\, des variations de la lumière et du cycle perpétuel des saisons. \nL’exposition permet de découvrir la technique unique et minutieuse de l’artiste qui transcende des matériaux dits « pauvres » du rien au précieux. \nAnne-Yvonne Jouan est une artiste franco-canadienne qui partage sa vie entre la Bretagne en France et l’île d’Orléans au Québec. Depuis plusieurs années\, la fibre constitue son médium de prédilection. Ses oeuvres en trois dimensions sont principalement composées de papier découpé\, de matières organiques et végétales. Son travail avec ce matériau simple\, souvent considéré « pauvre »\, propose l’exploration de micro-paysages qui nous ramènent à l’essentiel\, à la nature\, à la vie. \nDiplômée d’une maîtrise en droit des affaires et de l’École du Louvre en histoire de l’art\, elle a exercé le métier de commissaire-priseur en France durant une dizaine d’années avant d’immigrer au Canada en 2006. Elle a appris la technique du dessin à l’Académie d’art réaliste de Toronto (ARA) et a reçu plusieurs bourses du Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec (CALQ).\nSes oeuvres de papier ont été exposées dans de nombreux musées et centres d’expositions publiques au Canada\, dont le musée Marius-Barbeau en 2021 et le Centre national d’exposition en 2022. En 2023 et 2024\, ses Jardins de papier ont été présentés au Centre d’art de La Sarre\, au Centre national d’exposition à Jonquière\, à la Villa Bagatelle et au Centre Materia à Québec ainsi qu’au Musée des métiers d’art du Québec.

SUMMARY:Wilderness Stories by Dawn McArthur
DESCRIPTION:Galerie Old Chelsea is thrilled to announce its latest exhibition featuring the works of Dawn McArthur\, a unique visual storyteller and wilderness artist\, known for her evocative acrylic paintings that capture the vibrant essence of the Quebec wilderness. The exhibition will showcase McArthur’s unique approach to art\, blending storytelling\, symbolism\, and a deep connection to nature. \nMcArthur’s work is inspired by the stunning landscapes of Quebec\, where she finds inspiration in the wild beauty that surrounds her. Through her expressive paintings\, McArthur celebrates “The Wild” with playful optimism\, reflecting her personal outlook on life. Each piece is a testament to her belief in the power of art to connect people to the natural world\, both consciously and subconsciously. \n“Storytelling and symbolism are key components to my art\,” says McArthur. “My paintings are about more than just the image—they are an invitation to reflect on our relationship with nature. Through the use of colour-play\, strong lines\, and composition\, I aim to create harmony and balance that guides the viewer through a story of the wilderness.” \nInfluenced by renowned artists such as Chagall\, Seurat\, Morisseau\, Klimt\, and Franz Marc\, McArthur’s style merges realism and surrealism\, using bold\, black lines to outline her subjects and add energy\, balance\, and focus to her work. The distinct brush strokes of color within her landscapes contrast with the realistic depiction of wildlife\, bringing an element of surrealism that invites the viewer to see the natural world in a new light. In her paintings\, even fish in the deep waters are fully visible\, challenging the boundaries between reality and imagination. \nMcArthur’s vibrant palette\, rich textures\, and thoughtful compositions encourage the viewer to step into the scene and experience the wilderness in all its beauty. The stories embedded within each painting reflect McArthur’s personal mandate: to instill a sense of wonder and a desire to protect the natural world. \nThis exhibition offers a unique opportunity to experience McArthur’s deep love for the Quebec wilderness and her vision for preserving it through art. Galerie Old Chelsea invites art lovers and nature enthusiasts alike to join us for the opening and explore the vivid landscapes and captivating stories that McArthur so masterfully brings to life.
