Sally Podmore is a self-taught artist living on Vancouver Island. Her abstract impressionistic style has evolved in an ongoing conversation with her natural surroundings. With acrylic on canvas, Podmore’s vibrant style incorporates bold strokes, mark making, drips, and rich colours that create a unique and improvisational quality in her work. Her paintings are a celebration of the sparks of wonder, curiosity, wellness, and joy ignited in nature. Themes in Podmore’s art centre around a sense of place, memory, and nostalgia for the ever-changing seasons of life. Her paintings are held in private and corporate collections across the country.
