Rod Charlesworth
Biography
Born in northern British Columbia, Rod moved to
the Okanogan at a very young age.
His earliest paintings were influenced by the surrealists.
He
then discovered the works of the impressionist school, which
has taken him to his current artistic
interests, which include
a keen interest in experimenting with color and
the physical qualities of paint.
Tom Thompson and the Group of Seven have
also had a profound influence on his work.
"Painting becomes tedious when the ultimate goal of
the painter is to recreate the external world. I've always felt
that the painting exists only within its own borders, which allows the curious
mind of the artist to say - what if I did this?"
Rod's work is now collected worldwide and he is committed to painting images
that have a strong Canadian cultural influence, whether through his
bold landscapes or his more recent whimsical images of children at play.
