In my travels I came across a great Canadian painter years ago, Emily Carr. Her work from early 20th century has always stayed with me. She studied art theory in Europe and then went on to explore painting nature around Vancouver. She experimented with “dynamism” through paint. Her works are brilliant and have endured in the art world. The colours literally have a vibration, and give us incredible lense to see invisible elements like wind and time.

Here's a friggin massive link so some of her paintings….
