Adele Webster

With a background in graphic design and a love of color theory, Adele blends dynamic visuals with her mastery of a unique acrylic wash process, exploring gesture and colour through layered paint washes on wood panels. Inspired by nature's landscapes, she uses a minimalist style to create harmony and a sense of calm. Her art evokes dream-like memories, inviting viewers to escape into playful yet serene contemporary vistas.

Early in life, Adele Webster found the escape creativity provided, the peaceful place your brain wanders while creating. Everything she paints begins in nature; the way water moves, the way clouds form. Natural landscapes, seascapes and horizon lines are a constant theme throughout her creations. 

“Nature is my greatest inspiration. I'm fascinated with the layering of distant horizons. To me, looking out over a large body of water or open vista is one of the most peaceful, calming views. In my paintings, I try to capture the simple graceful beauty of it all. Also allowing the paint to settle, ebb and flow, in its own natural process makes sense to me. I embrace the mystery and beauty of it all.”

Adele studied Graphic Design at St. Lawrence College in Kingston, Ontario, and has worked in the graphics field for over twenty years. She paints from her Kingston studio, overlooking Lake Ontario. Her work can be found in galleries across Canada.
