| Eva Lewarne Paintings | |
| Born and raised in Poland I have been living most of my adult life in Toronto. I have always painted, even before attending OCAD.In the last couple of years, I have received a Medal from France in a Painting Festival in Avignon. (Grand Prix). Not my first there. Some of my work was stolen from the Grand Palais in Paris, before that. I paint energetically and intuitively, to avoid thinking, until a piece feels finished. Then I look to see what is there, as surprised as anyone else.I like to explore how our mundane moment-to-moment life relates to the greater Life, of birth and death.I feel my recent abstract work is also about becoming younger and younger. My goal is to paint like a 4 year old. | |

| Artist's Statement: | |
| In my opinion, the artist is not only helpful but also essential to the well being of society. Art is, and has always been, a means to communicate experiences, emotions and sensations, usually to others, using metaphor. The artist's role is to pick up on those ideas and to explore them with imagery. He/she uses the given cultural vocabulary to do so. And by doing this successfully, the artist can instill in the minds of the viewer a faith in the power of the creative mind. Put very simply, creativity is the single most important aspect of the human mind, because it allows knowledge to grow and mature. It is curiosity, imagination, unpredictability, ... And so we all need the artist, to move forward with our understanding of the world and with our appreciation of fantasy and insightfulness. Artists are not only the barometers of society, predicting the future but the instigators of new forms and systems. | |
