Opening Show: Keith Dalgleish

Welcome to the gallery this action painter whose main subjects are brilliant birds expressed with bold, commanding brushwork. Keith Dalgleish was raised and educated in Alberta. He received a Bachelors Degree with Honours in Fine Art – Painting, from the Alberta University of the Arts, (ACAD), in Calgary. He has a Diploma in Dance from McEwan University, and a Certificate in Commercial Sign Painting from NAIT, both in Edmonton. Keith has had a number of juried solo and group fine art exhibitions in Alberta and British Columbia. Within the past two decades, Keith tried his hand at owning an art gallery and travelled to several countries. His biggest influence, however, was living on a small farm on the edge of the Porcupine Hills in Southern Alberta. Here he learned a new kind of creativity, from working with horses, gardening, and building and repairing what was required. All this has now led Keith to a harmonious place, dancing each day with canvas, paint, and beautiful birds.
