60” x 40” Oil on Panel 2024

Daniel Audet (b.1982 Canada) is an oil painter interested in the use of colour and image content as a way of cultivating an emotional reaction in the viewer.

Through the use of impressionist painting techniques to express form and light he produces paintings of deep introspection and haunting imagery.

The paintings hold a space of contemplation; a vessel for the viewers’ mind to explore an unsolvable realm.

Daniel received a Bachelor of Fine Arts, majoring in painting, from the University of Lethbridge and further technical instruction at the New York Academy of Fine Arts. His work has been exhibited and collected throughout North America, including the BMO Centre public art collection in Calgary.

In 2019 Daniel returned to live in the rural Alberta landscape of his youth; a river valley of badlands, hoodoos, and the nightly call of the coyote. It is a sacred place of expansive sky and rich colour where time is felt in the rhythm of the seasons.
