JANE ASH POITRAS

New Paintings

November 7 - 27, 2015

Artist reception: Saturday, November 7, 2:00 pm - Join us as we celebrate Jane Ash Poitras's journey of discovery and creation which has opened new doors to enlightenment as she combines her diverse interests in pursuit of her distinctive artistic vision. The artist created many of these mixed-media works on canvas in 2015 exclusively for her latest exhibition.

"The work is engaging for its beauty alone but up close is where the cerebral journey begins, unraveling fragments of information, both subtle and in-your-face pronouncements, to reveal the story this imaginative artist is telling."

- Janice Ryan, Edmonton Journal visual arts critic
