Angela burdon
ARTIST
Angela Burdon’s fascination with the freedom of the spirit is seen in the flowing manes of her wild horses and the luminous beauty of her portraits. She explores her passion for nature and emotion with an adventurous mix of materials and mediums.
​
Formerly a full time Nurse, and now a member of SOVA - Southern Ontario Visual Artisits, Angela combines the techniques she learnt from ateliers in Florence, Barcelona and Seattle with inspiration from such diverse sources as Sorolla, Sargent and Santos, to fuse her traditional training with a contemporary and life-affirming approach to art.
​
Born in England but now a resident of Mono, Ontario, Angela used to throw herself off mountains for fun, paragliding. Now she seeks that same liberation at the end of a paintbrush. After her children, her favourite things in life are south-facing properties and a family-size pack of BBQ chips.
Commissions
Angela is currently accepting commissions for paintings or drawings. Commissions can be portraits, from life or from photographs or anything else you would like to have as a piece of art. She is willing to travel to clients or alternatively take appointments at her studio in Mono, ON.
