GERRY THOMPSON - AFCA, CSPWC, ARCT

British Columbia artist, Gerry Thompson, found a means of expressing her fascination with the light-filled world of images and objects in her paintings. Subjects that inspire her usually have one or more of the following attributes: strong contrast between light and shadow, combinations of natural and artificial light, unique textures, close-up perspective, and interesting colour combinations.

Within that context she paints the world around her as she sees it at that particular time in her life.

Her paintings are found in collections throughout the world. Gerry is a popular workshop instructor and juror and has traveled to many locations in Canada, United States, France, and Spain.

Gerry is a graduate of the University College of the Fraser Valley, in Abbotsford, BC, where she majored in Painting and Printmaking. She is a Signature Member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and an Elected Member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colour.

In addition, she is an accomplished musician and is an Associate of the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto, Ontario.
