Original Oil - SURF

One of four in a series painted by this artist in her signature palette and with the underpinning of her childhood spent on the water. Horizons, skies, sunrises, sunsets, drift, surf, etc, all are revealed in her paintings. Beautiful as one, and stunning with each one of the rest of the series.

Size: Framed to 15" x 15" in a solid natural-coloured wood 1 1/2" float frame beautifully made by the artist. Oil on canvas, set off with the black painted inside of the float frame. 

The Artist: Drawing was the one constant during Troy Stewart's childhood on the seas. Troy was born in the Caribbean and raised on a sailboat, eventually staying on land long enough to graduate from the Bristol Art College in the UK. Since settling in Canada, she has earned her keep as an award-winning graphic designer for both corporate clients and non-profit organizations, all the while continuing her art practice through painting, photography and life drawing. Most recently Troy (known as TUS on her artworks) has developed a habit with oil paints, and has carried her attention to texture, abstract form and natural beauty into her new work. Cambridge, Ontario is now home for Troy, but the magnificent and ever-present horizons of her childhood inspire her still, and often appear in her work consciously and unconsciously.
