Iris Low

Visual Artist born in The Netherlands living in North Vancouver since 1992. In my work I look for different ways of expressing the world around me in the simplest format through either limiting my colour palette or by simplifying my subject. My subjects reveal themselves through layers of applied paint that is intuitively chosen. I enjoy finding the mood through figurative Art. I have struggled for many years with Chronic Depression and although I am in remission, I still find my art is influenced by the moods and the feelings that I experienced during that time. I strive to express, through my work, the mood or signature that the subject leaves in my mind.

I am what I paint. I am the medium expressing the world around me and inside me.
