This specific online exclusive show has been selectively curated to provide an immersive southwest coast experience through the eyes of landscape painter Terrill Welch.
In 2021, Terrill Welch released 28 new paintings and sold 44 from her available inventory and by commission. This trajectory has been steadily building since she began painting full-time in 2010. If you are passionate about contemporary landscape painting, Terrill is an artist you will want to follow and consider adding to your art collection.
The spirited southwest coast of Canada moves with rhythmic power and ease under Terrill Welch’s brushstrokes. There is a sensory intimacy between the painter and the southwest coast’s unique trees, sandstone shores, open ocean beaches and historic landmarks. Viewers of Terrill’s oil and acrylic contemporary landscape paintings feel as if they know these places, even if they have only visited through her paintings.
Inspired by Saint John Point Park Reserve on Mayne Island
As a landscape painter I have places that I revisit over time finding something new to brush onto a canvas for board. One of these places is the Saint John Point Park Reserve. These paintings range from 2018 up until today. I hope you enjoy the variety and exploration of this unique ecosystem located within Coast Salish Territory. Thanks and recognition to the Mayne Island Conservancy and the family who owned this property for working so hard towards its park status. Learn more about this 26 hectare waterfront park reserve that was established in 2017 on the Capital Regional District website.
Small and large landscape and seascape paintings, by internationally collected, contemporary Canadian artist, Terrill Welch, brush an ancient song in painting notes of movement and mystery across the canvases.
Over the years, Terrill Welch has painted several smaller oil paintings. This collection is for oil paintings between 8 x 10 inches and 12 x16 inches (either landscape or portrait). This collection has been created specifically to assist those looking for smaller oil paintings. There is also a separate collection for “Quick Acrylic Painting Sketches” in the same size range.
Thriving in Place is to fully live, grow and evolve right where I am. It is to honour the desire and ability to reach deep beneath the surface of all aspects of our natural world in my painting practice with revelry. I rejoice in what each day offers close to home on our small island off the southwest coast of Canada. Thriving in Place is a celebration of my everyday and the ordinary. I have enough and I am enough, today, with where I am and who I am. Methods and approaches will vary while my intention holds steady. These Thriving in Place paintings come from here and they invite you into the same practice for living.
Each painting year is unique with its own special moments and significant points of celebration. In 2023, Terrill released 30 new paintings and 20 paintings from her inventory of available artwork were acquired by art collectors. Of the 30 new paintings in 2023, Terrill has chosen 12 to represent her best work of the year. Many of these 12 paintings have been completed since September of 2023 and are fresh off of the artist’s easel. Enjoy!
