The
quintessential plein art painter, Modlinski roams from mountains to ice
fields, following his muse. He delights in the changes of season, and
diverse geography that the world offers, embracing a challenging
environment. He has seen more of our natural world than most have ever dream
of.
Born in Warsaw, Poland,
where he attended the School for Artistic Design, he came to Canada at age
15. In Toronto he graduated with honors from the Ontario College of Art in
1993. Then in search of the wild places, he moved to the remote and rugged
north west location of Atlin, British Columbia. Here he taught art at the
Atlin Art Center, while also employed as a wilderness guide, from 1995 to
2000. The past ten years have taken him to Alaska, the Yukon, NW
Territories, Antartica and Patagonia.
Dominik thrives in a
physically challenging environment, and his oil paintings speak of an
intense involvement with the land. He says, “I am humbled
everyday, as I travel through this great land”. With imagery as lash a his,
he inspires us to feel the same.
