Ottawa-based artist Duncan de Kergommeaux offers us a painting with a view in Lake Huron 19-06-87. de Kergommeaux’s landscapes feature wide open spaces where vibrant colour and prominent horizon lines are key and their painterly nature harkens back to his decades long exploration of abstraction. This work is among a number of Lake Huron landscapes deKergommeaux completed while working in London, Ontario in the 1980s.
