ANDREW D MILNE

VISUAL ARTIST


ARTIST’S STATEMENT

I was born and raised in Kanata, Ontario – a neighbourhood celebrated around the world for its architectural balance with nature. From these beginnings, my art has focused on our interactions with the environment that surrounds and sustains us, using visual media as a means of weaving together the chapters of our life story. Of late, my attention has been drawn to depicting the iconic scenes near my family cottage in Eastern Ontario that are central to my past, present and future.

 

“Every summer and most weekends for as long as I can remember, I have immersed myself in nature – literally planting myself in a scene and waiting for the perfect moment to capture on canvas. This has impacted my life in immeasurable ways, and it will always be central to my artistic expression.” ~Andrew

 

BIOGRAPHY

Andrew is a graduate of Sheridan College, with a focus on illustration, advertising and marketing. He has a passion for camping, hiking and adventure travel around the world, but always finds his way back to the spectacular landscapes of Canada – whether to return to his roots along the waterways of the World Heritage Site Rideau Canal, or to explore our country from coast to coast to coast, and discover what lies between.

 

He is proud to call the Glebe home, with his wonderful wife Dominique, sons Logan and Lex, and faithful canine companion Skye.

The 22 pieces in this series are a reflection of the myriad locations I've had the privilege to explore over the years—places where I've camped under starlit skies, shared laughter with friends, bonded with family, and wandered with my faithful canine companions. Each artwork is infused with the essence of these experiences, capturing the timeless beauty and untamed spirit of Algonquin Park.
