Mt.Edith Cavell · Jasper National Park · Linnea Martina Hannigan

My work is in the form of contemporary landscapes and snapshot details of nature. Using Canada’s vast mountains and never ending prairie to give her inspiration; “Love for the unspoken words of nature.” In my work I don’t want to recreate the exact likeliness of a mountain but the feeling you get from these mountains. Using strong lines, colour, tones & negative space to create mountain forms. Creating shifts in the mountain range by the slightest change in line direction, strong bold unexpected natural colours, to spark personal recollections in the viewer from an unconventional perspective, carefully building layers upon layers, leaving a translucent history, using colour depth, luminescence, surface transitions, transitions of slight sodalities.

·Finished with an archival protective layer- no framing behind
glass required.

Linnea works the canvas revealing translucent layers with a
soft dreamlike quality to the edges of the work. Exactly where
your state of mind should be when dreaming about
mountains and their vastness and wonder
