Fields of Prince Edward Island

Prince Edward Island is one of my favourite places. I have been very lucky to be able to spend a few summer vacations on the Island with my family. I love the friendly people, the amazing beaches, the food, the quaint architecture, and the rolling green hills with it’s rich red soil. “The Fields of Prince Edward Island” is a triptych acrylic painting that I completed a few years back. The green and iron red colours of the landscape were begging to be painted, and I was happy to oblige. The three original paintings which form the triptych, are triple matted and framed behind glass.

The Beginning of the Second Painting in the New “Red Signature Series” of Paintings

Initial rough drawing (and detail) for the next painting in the new “Red Signature Series” of Paintings…. Wait for the colour….. and the Title. The image has a great feel to it, and I’m really looking forward to working on this painting, and bringing it to life!

Bernadette and Wally – The first painting in the “Red Signature Series” of Paintings

I have started a new “Red Signature Series” of paintings which are a collection of bright, colourful, funky, whimsical and stylized contemporary paintings. These paintings will typically include people interacting with their coastal environment. I was inspired to paint this series of paintings after realizing that most of my own personal favourite artists and pieces of art actually fit into this description of art. The great Canadian artists who have helped to inspire this series of paintings include E J Hughes, Alex Colville, Jean Paul Lemieux, Claude A Simard and Ted Harrison. I really enjoyed painting the first painting of this series which is titled “Bernadette and Wally”. This painting brightens and cheers up any room that it hangs in. The original painting SOLD very quickly, but is now available as a beautiful giclee print, available at http://www.cameronthurbide.com. I have included a few pictures below to show how “Bernadette and Wally” was created, starting as a rough drawing and ending as a contemporary stylized painting.

Summer at the Sea

This is a recent acrylic painting that was inspired by the beautiful beach along Ross Bay in Victoria, on Vancouver Island. This is one of my favourite places to go for a walk, or to simply sit, relax, and enjoy the view of the Olympic Mountains of Washington State.
