Entering Nature represents a selection of artist John Ward’s latest works, paintings that move away from the strict realism of his early career towards a spiritual, emotional, subjective rendering of the natural world. In these brilliant, hard-edged depictions of leaves in the forest, he has not abandoned the technical strengths of his early years but built on them. His use of vivid colors and of the contrasts between black and white convey a duality — both foreboding of death and the “sense of hope, of light, of energy.” This catalogue of an exhibition of Ward’s work at the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery shows us the evolution of an artist. The works included, in their exploration of light and color, “challenge the limits of technique and imagery.” Yet technical knowledge enhances the feeling, to convey the artist’s awe of the natural world.
