Val Nelson

Vancouver based artist Val Nelson is an honors graduate of the Emily Carr College of Art and Design. Formerly a dancer and videographer, in the past ten years she has reinvented herself as a painter. Singled out by art critic Christopher Brayshaw for her "loose, intelligent brushwork," she has received a number of awards, including a Visual Arts Development Award from the Vancouver Foundation, and was one of 15 artists shortlisted in 2003 for the New Canadian Painting Competition, sponsored by the Canadian Art Foundation and RBC Investments. Her work is included in Carte Blanche Vol. 2: Painting, a new book by Magenta Publishing for the Arts. The book provides a survey and showcase for the current state of painting in Canada, highlighting 190 Canadian painters.

Val is interested in optical experience as filtered through the mindset of the traveller. Her depictions of tourist sites deal with memory, loss, and the search for happiness.

…”intellectually and artistically daring work…” ––Gilbert Bouchard, Edmonton Journal

“Nelson records characteristics of her subject, but the finished work is infused with qualities that transcend the merely visible...” –from an essay by Gordon Snyder
