Ryan Sobkovich

"My goal as a artist is to encourage the appreciation of the vast Canadian wilderness and the importance of preserving it for future generations. Kayaking and hiking in wilderness areas connects me with nature physically, emotionally and psychologically. Using thick, dynamic, gestural brushwork. I stimulate emotions, memories and thoughts as I paint 'en plein air'."
