Watercolours: Jennifer Lawson

Event Description

What is it that gives old homes and tangled gardens such character? Such personality? What makes us fall in love with them? It’s that indefinable essence Jennifer Lawson captures in her watercolour paintings.

Her 1863 log house studio is the perfect place from which to paint Mt. Tzouhalem, the Cowichan River, or an old milk jug overflowing with sweet peas. Fresh air and old linens, riotous country gardens, Victorian houses, sun-warmed peaches in china bowls; these are the things she has loved with her paintbrush for over 40 years.

Her paintings, limited edition prints, and cards evoke a timeless, treasured world, from her birthplace in Yorkshire to India, from Bermuda to the Garry Oak meadows of Vancouver Island.
