2025 Lakeshore Art Trail Artists

Brenda LaRose

Acrylic

Brenda LaRose is a contemporary representational landscape painter who lives in Halton Hills, Ontario and has been painting for over 30 years. Her art education consists of hundreds of hours of in person workshops and on-line learning on a wide range of subject matter and topics (including colour theory, composition and specific techniques), throughout her career, which continues to this day.

Her current work is inspired by kayak excursions on a Northern Ontario lake where she photographs the ever changing landscapes for later interpretation on canvas. She has collectors both locally and internationally.

Brenda has exhibited at local galleries and in several on-line galleries – Fine Arts Society of Milton and Arts on the Credit. Recent shows include the acclaimed McMichael Volunteer Fundraiser Show and the Arts on the Credit Shows. One of her landscape paintings was selected for the “Under Wraps” public art project with the Town of Halton Hills. She is now a member of the Town of Halton Hills Public Arts Advisory Board, where she helps to bring public art into the community.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My current focus is on creating art inspired by the magnificence of the scenery around Whitestone Lake, in northern Ontario, where I photograph the scenes I encounter as I travel around the lakes by car, by boat, by kayak and on foot. My typical subject matter includes scenes of the lake, like sunrises, sunsets, but also just ordinary views of lake life. I interpret the scenes – some quite unassuming, some much more dramatic - using acrylic paints on canvas, and palette knives, to create the exquisite texture and colour that makes the paintings come alive.

My goal is that the feelings of peace and serenity that I feel so deeply when viewing the scenes evoke that same feelings in the viewer and allows them the opportunity to bring that into their home and/or cottage. Sharing that splendour with others is what motivates me and gives me so much joy.
