Profile: Christine CodeArtist Profile Christine Code
The paintings of self-taught artist Christine Code evoke the mystery and drama of the landscape in the "Land of the Living Skies", as rural Saskatchewan is known. The atmospheric moodiness of her canvases reflects time spent on location, even in the cold Canadian winter, returning to the studio with sketches to inform her larger works. Code recognizes the necessity of painting from life and writes that, ". . . outdoors is the source for all the information you need as a landscape painter." Her work has been featured in both national and international exhibitions and has won multiple awards from the Plein Air Salon, Modern Impressionist Salon, National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society, Oil Painters of America and the Federation of Canadian Artists. She shared with us her influences and inspirations, beginning with her earliest art mentor.
