Contemporary Painting:
The Vocabulary of Paint

A talk + presentation by Kim-Lee Kho
​
Sunday, April 29, 2018 at 2:00pm

Neilson Park Creative Centre
56 Neilson Drive,
​Etobicoke, ON (near Dundas & Hwy 427)
Illustration at the top of the page features details from paintings by (clockwise from top left): Wendy White, Erin Loree, Jennifer Wigmore and Kim Dorland.
Many contemporary painters are working with an expansive vocabulary of paint, or a distinctly contemporary language, using (and pushing) the properties of the paint, and its application, in varied and unexpected ways. 

Their paintings can really surprise us, offering us rich tactile experiences, a vivid sense of the artist’s hand as well as fascinating optical effects. 

See lots of examples from artists working today – many of them Canadian! – focusing in on their painterly vocabulary and unique ways of working with paint. 

Kim-Lee Kho teaches regularly at Neilson Park Creative Centre. She’s an actively exhibiting multidisciplinary Canadian artist and recovering graphic designer/art director. As a teacher, speaker and consultant, she leads people on adventures in art. 

This presentation relates closely to her own approach to painting and she has taught numerous popular courses and workshops on related topics. 

Her upcoming weekend workshop at Neilson Park, Contemporary Painting: Transparent Glazes in Acrylics, will focus on creating the gorgeous depth, lustre and complexity of layered transparent glazes. It will look at mediums: suitability and how to choose, mixing and dilution, applying and layering, the very different nature of transparent colour and how to combine it with other approaches. 

Experienced glaze painters can also benefit from working on their own projects in consultation with Kim.

OSA Open Juried Exhibition: I’m In and You’re Invited!

4/9/2018

 
The Ontario Society of Artists has a long history – almost 150 years of it. Their Open Juried Exhibition is always an event, and this year, I’m happy to report, that event includes my work! The large print of Tangled Heart, No Blood Left made it in.

This was a very tough show to get into, I know a number of artists who didn’t make the cut, so I count myself lucky. I was initially drawn to submit my work largely because of the two (out of three) jurors I knew of, regardless of whether I got in or not. One of the jurors, Richard Rhodes, I know in-person; he was the longtime editor of Canadian Art magazine, and we met properly at the gallery he started after leaving Canadian Art, Richard Rhodes Dupont Projects, which had some wonderful shows, though it’s since closed I’m sad to say.

If you can make the reception on Thursday, April 12, 6–8pm, please say hi; otherwise I hope you can visit the show which is sure to be interesting and worth seeing.

Show runs April 10 through May 4, 2018.
Location information including a map is below. Hope to see you there!
