Much of the inspiration for Erin Boake’s paintings comes from her travels across Canada. The influence of the landscapes of places like Alberta, Yukon, Quebec, and Nova Scotia along with the fascinating people she has encountered in her travels is evidenced in her artwork. Her bold acrylics and oils on canvas are what she calls her “interpretation of the beauty of my ever changing landscape.” Her straightforward method of capturing the images she finds in both urban and rural settings is a refreshing approach. Often focusing on parts of images – a side of a face, the roots and bottom halves of majestic trees – her paintings give the viewer fascinating glimpses into the larger world surrounding those parts.
Erin Boake is a graduate of the Alberta College of Art and Design where she earned her BFA in painting and currently works as an artist and art instructor in Red Deer.
