John Werlich

"Rugged, watery, glacier-smoothed and windswept landscapes are part of our Canadian identity. We are witnesses to the survival of life in a sometimes harsh and unforgiving land".

John's images evoke a memory, a sense of belonging, and share in the awe of the sublime natural beauty that surrounds us. Exquisite hand-screened chiyogami, colourful textured and reflective metallic papers become his palette. The technique he developed is unique and allows for full artistic expression.

John invites the viewer of his art to linger and reflect. "This is our home".
