Edward Abela

"Whether in the Island of Malta, my country of birth or in Canada, or in my travels in Europe or America, I have always sought to interpret my environment on paper or canvas. Like the impressionists, I seek to be a ‘painter of light” and look for beauty in light and shadows and in contrasting colours. Most of my landscapes incorporate this to some degree. If the viewer looking at my work finds this to be pleasing and exciting, I feel I would have achieved my purpose."

Edward is a member of the Markham Group of Artists and the Don Valley Art Club.

Mainly self taught, I am always looking for opportunities to widen my artistic horizons. I am currently a member of the Markham Group of Artists and the Don Valley Art Club. He has exhibited his solo and group shows in Canada, England, Germany and Malta and he has received a number of awards.  His paintings can be found in private homes and offices in Canada, US, England, France, Switzerland, Hong Kong and New Zealand.
