Laurie De Camillis | Four Seasons

April 12, 2025 – June 22, 2025

Out in the open air, through the seasons and across the landscape, Laurie De Camillis renders what she sees in oil painted brushstrokes. With birch panel and palette in hand, she sets up an ad hoc studio amid the trees and water, land and sky, and creates each artwork reflecting the colours and textures as nature composed them. Each of De Camillis’ brushstrokes are necessary and final. The works are complete once they leave their place of origin. Once back at her studio, no revisions or refinements are made. These are a collection of scenes, documentations of being there and seeing that. The light shifts and the wind blows; there is no stillness here, a vulnerability to the elements. This is life.

“I share my short time with trees, hills, grasses, sky, and all the living things; with all that is around me and without which I would not exist. I sit and paint realizing my life is also just a moment squeezed between the light years passed and the light years ahead I will never see. We are immersed in a web of all things within a moment of time, a glimpse.” – Laurie DeCamillis, 2025
