Page Ough has been painting for almost her entire life, from preschool through high school to a few moments at the kitchen table after her four children were off to school. Primarily self taught, she started painting in earnest in 1980.
Page
has lived in Ontario, Newfoundland, Connecticut, Alberta and recently to her last western stop, Vancouver Island. Her outdoor life style of photography, hiking, canoeing, and cross country running combined with her ever searching eye provides
inspiration for her work.
Page's career is a continuing work in progress that has developed in stages. Her start and mainstay is wildlife as she combines the subjects' unique characteristics of form and colour with glimpses into the animals’
personality with particular detail to eyes and facial expression. Next was to share the canvas with habitat and the dramatic seasonality of landscape in which wildlife survive.
Another development was the introduction of “Not Still Life” where
typical still life images take on an interesting and sometimes humorous note with the addition of mischievous little birds.
Vancouver Island's influence can now be seen with the advent of large canvasses filled with a meadow full of wild flowers
or bigger than life florals.
She is a dedicated artist in constant pursuit of nature and its inhabitants. This manifests itself into her passion to capture its likeness on canvas. She produces about sixty pieces a year, and in 2004 she created
a solo show of thirty wolf paintings dedicated to improving wolf awareness. This show helped bring public attention to the depleting and desperate state of these generally misunderstood animals.
Page's work is exclusively shown at Canada House
Gallery in Banff, Alberta and sold worldwide.
