ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES - ALLAN MYNDZAK

Contemporary Canadian Impressionist Allan Myndzak's extraordinary paintings evoke the serenity and stillness of an enchanted garden retreat. Born in Vernon, British Columbia, Myndzak began painting at the age of eight, under the guidance of noted artist Jessie Topham Brown. His exceptional talent was rewarded with a scholarship to the Alberta College of Art in Calgary where he studied from 1972 to 1976.

Like the French Impressionists, Myndzak continually explores the ever changing character of light in his paintings. Working in his preferred medium of oil on board, the artist renders lush garden landscapes in dappled light, achieving a rich, atmospheric quality. Myndzak's refined technique and palette of soft summer hues complement his selection of traditional Impressionistic themes. The artist's distinctive work has achieved worldwide recognition and is included in numerous corporate and private collections.
