A signature member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colour and of the Society of Canadian Artists, Christopher Gorey is an artistic legend here in Nova Scotia. His watercolours and oil paintings grace the homes and collections of Canadians across the country and his designs can be found on the 1981 & 1987 Canadian commemorative silver dollars as well as the 2022 Alexander Graham Bell circulating dollar. While eclectic in its landscape (covering northern Cape Breton, England and Nova Scotia), “Capturing Light” focuses on the play of light. Christopher is presently working in the media of watercolour and oil in an impressionistic, painterly manner. Along with originals on display, he will also include some Giclee fine art reproductions.
