    Art & Gibberish #18 | Keith Dalgleish

    Keith sees both the act of painting and his completed artworks as physical recordings that document his experiences of his effort to connect to nature. He is especially drawn to those aspects of the wild that are intimate and remind us all of our innocence. For over a decade, Keith had the good fortune to live on a small remote parcel of land in the Porcupine Hills of Southern Alberta. He was surrounded by nature and its intrinsic order. In that time he grew closer to his natural surroundings. Keith's approach to art-making can be viewed as a happy marriage between classical painting and contemporary abstraction.
