Anne deJong

Anne deJong is a landscape painter living in Alberta. She works primarily with a palette knife and oils, creating rich and textured paintings. Her work is centred around capturing the beauty she sees in nature. ⁠The majority of Anne’s art takes inspiration from Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, and she uses her personal connection to the landscape to ground her paintings. She actively seeks out opportunities to explore natural settings and experience wild and remote landscapes. Her paintings are a commitment to share not only places she has personally experienced, but also landscapes that are dear to her viewers.⁠ Spending time in the mountains always brings a feeling of peace and of awe for the vastness of the wilderness, and she tries to portray that feeling in each painting.
