OK Sunshine by Heidi Thompson at the 麻豆精选 International Airport KAG display case.

When Okanagan artist Heidi Thompson received a commission to create work for the 麻豆精选 Art Gallery鈥檚 space at the 麻豆精选 International Airport she chose to explore the light of the Okanagan.

She created five large-sized abstract canvasses, all containing lots of yellow鈥攁long with other colours.

The texture on each is an important added element. The multi-panelled installation is entitled OK Sunshine and is currently on view at YLW until Nov. 7.
