Terrace Review —— Wednesday, October 9, 1991 19

Oil works by Northwest artist on
display at gallery this month

various locations in north-
western B.C., the Yukon and
the Caribbean.

Weir worked as a winter
caretaker in mining camps
in the Spatsizi area for most
of the 1980’s. He says this
allowed him to paint
throughout the year, enjoy-
ing the “beautiful and
unspoiled wilderness”. Weir
has been a full time artist for
four years, living and work-
ing in Cedarvale, He paints
exclusively in oils, and says

influences on his work
include other artists in
northwest British Columbia
as well as the French Post
Impressionists. Weir says he
concentrates his works on
capturing atmospheric light
effects and defining the
mood and power of the
northern landscape.

Weir’s show opened Oct.
5 and will remain on display
in the gallery until the end of
the month.
