Over the past decade, artist Quvianaqtuk Pudlat has shifted her focus from sculpture to drawing. This month, this work is exhibited at the Madrona Gallery.

Pudlat expresses a remarkable understanding of the behaviors and characteristics of arctic wildlife, creating distinct works based on his experiences with these animals.

His subject matter and style are rooted in the foundations laid by Kananginak Pootoogook and Tim Pitsiulak, however, his use of motif and distinct perspective distinguish his work as a leader in contemporary Inuit art.

The solo exhibition of works by Quvianaqtuk Pudlat runs May 14-27 with an opening reception on May 14 from 1-3 p.m. Visit the gallery at 606 View St. or learn more at madronagallery.com.

The West End Gallery presents the work of Alain Bedard this month.

Bedard says he has always been an artist and enjoys painting the moments in life that inspire him and bring him joy.

Bedard studied at the Cégep de Ste-Foy in Quebec and at Laval University. During his studies in Laval, he had the privilege of studying with the famous Canadian painter Claude A. Simard, who became a great friend and mentor. Having worked as a professional painter for many years, Alain has developed a distinct style based on his travels, his love of architecture and his brilliant use of color.

« Figurative art is my vision of what surrounds me. I am just walking the path of my life with those I love, my family and my friends,” he said in an artist statement. “In each painting you will discover places, these are the places I have visited and the moments I have lived, fixing them forever in time through my work as an artist.”

The show, titled What I Live, runs May 14-26 at the West End Gallery, 1203 Broad St. Visit westendgalleryltd.com for hours.

Kimberly Kiel marks This Moment with a solo exhibition at The Avenue Gallery this month.

This moment runs May 12-23 at The Avenue Gallery, 2184 Oak Bay Ave. Visit theavenuegallery.com for hours.

In her fourth solo exhibition at The Avenue Gallery, Kiel has created a special collection of works showcasing her fearless use of color with bold flowers, energetic figures and landscapes of powerful trees.

“I’ve always been drawn to very textured paintings; those thick, creamy brush marks. As such, I strive to create a tangible and interesting surface in my own work,” Kiel said.

Originally from Saskatchewan, Kiel moved to Calgary in the mid-1990s to continue operating his financial planning practice. After 10 years of using her talents in this field, she decided it was time for a change and took her life as an artist. She now resides in Balgonie, Saskatchewan. with her husband and two young sons.

The Art Gallery of Greater Victoria is looking for volunteers for the TD Art Gallery Paint-In which returns to Moss Street for the first time since 2019. The 33rd annual event will take place July 16 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and it wouldn’t be possible to put on the event without the dozens of volunteers who make Vancouver Island’s biggest arts event of the year a huge success.
