TONI KING
Born in Vancouver, but recently relocated to Langley from the North Shore, Toni King is an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists BC and Fraser Valley, Langley Arts Council, North Shore Artists Guild and Fort Langley Artists Group.
Toni specializes in florals and still life paintings in watercolour to capture the delicacy of nature. Toni’s paintings make the viewer want to reach out and touch the lushness of each petal.
After retiring and being able to focus on her painting, Toni continues her self-directed and mentored studies exploring the exciting world of watercolour.
STATEMENT
As a watercolour artist I am in constant wonder of how the painting of florals and still life, using the light and transparency of watercolour, can capture the delicacy of nature. The play of light on lush petals, or reflecting off crystal brings me joy. The desire to feel the depth, texture and complexity of each flower opens up the beauty and mystery of every blossom. Portraying this fragility excites me as I capture their jewel like qualities.
There are always more flowers to paint and intimate scenes to marvel at.
