CONVERSATION WITH TOM THOMSON, 2018, Acrylic on canvas, 36”x48”
ANDREW C. SOOKRAH
Andrew Sookrah is a raw colourist whose free brushwork is confident and powerful.
His strengths can be seen in his strong sense of design, exquisite use of effective composition,
confident presentation of bold colour, in his figurative and portraiture work, and his capturing the
raw essence of the human spirit. He is a masterful expression of the unity of nature as shown in his
passion for the Canadian landscape. He has travelled extensively across Canada to paint, from the
Arctic / Yukon in the north, Pelee Island to the south, Haida Gwaii in the west, to Newfoundland
/ Maritimes in the east. He is also currently working on an urban street scene series as well as
Algonquin Park.
