Rick Beaver
Cultural Background: Mississauga Ojibway of Rice Lake area in Ontario
Rick Beaver was born in 1948 on the Alderville Indian Reserve on Rice Lake, Southern Ontario. A degree in wildlife biology is a strong influence on his painting which he began full-time in 1981. His art evokes an emotional response which harks back to the origin of earth’s people.
Allying nature and art, Rick’s works show definite textured contrasts. Backgrounds are softly amorphous and lilting compared to the sculptural linearity of the creature he has chosen to depict. This melding of forms that are faithful to biology with abstract backdrops is at the heart of the paintings of Rick Beaver.

Origine Culturelle: Mississauga Ojibway of Rice Lake area in Ontario
Rick Beaver est né en 1948 sur la réserve indienne d’Alderville, au bord du lac Rice, dans le sud de l’Ontario. Son diplôme en biologie sauvage a largement influencé ses peintures, lorsqu’il s’y est consacré à plein temps en 1981. Son art exprime une résponse émotionnelle qui remonte à l’origine de l’homme sur la terre.
En alliant l’art et la nature, les oeuvres de Rick nous montrent des contrastes d’une structure bien déterminée. Les arrière-plans sont légèrement flous et mélodieux par rapport à la précision graphique de la créature qu’il a choisi de représenter. Cette fonte des formes, qui restent fidèles à la biologie, agrémentée de toiles de fond abstraites, constituent l’essence des peintures de Rick Beaver.
