The Laurentians are one of Alex’s favourite spots to paint, and it is certainly visible when seeing the painting. In the background we can see a large deep body of water, and the foreground enveloping it. There is a real sense of space and depth here, and the size of the canvas adds to this effect - where the trees become to large that you can step into the painting and also walk around in the forest that Cameron has depicted.

A busy land mass sits by a large and open expanse of water. The earth has been painted in an amalgamous of colours and texture, which conceptually acts the same as when we physically look at a forest - as we are not able to always point out specific forms of trees, moreover they blend together and become a sole form.

A beautiful landscape in the winter, the Laurentians have always been a big inspiration for Cameron after his family had moved near Ottawa. The sky is shown in a tone of burgundy, with textured marks created directly from the paint applied with the tube itself. The mountains and trees stand out clearly in this image due to their lightly coloured nature, where as the flora around the trees create a sense of chaos - which contrasts nicely with the idealistic nature that is a "Skiers Dream".

In this exceptional painting from Alex, he has depicted a “sun dog”, otherwise known as a parhelion. This is an effect in our atmosphere when light is reflected off ice crystals in the atmosphere, creating a halo effect around the sun.

This painting gives off a spiritual glow, with its use of thick metallic and bright paints, the glow of the sun will also have you feeling a sense of warmth.

Howell Creek is a stretch of waterway in British Columbia. The location is isolated from any major communities - making this spot a tranquil place to be, and that is certainly reflected in the painting itself. The sky is a soft yellow, giving a sense of a calm day alongside the rich blue waters rushing by to give a complete feeling of relaxation.

In this painting, Alex has painted his view of the Canadian Rockies. Mountainous ranges such as those in Alberta or in the Northwest Territories are one of Alex’s greatest callings. He loves to venture straight to these locations - often times needing a helicopter to take him to these remote and isolated spots that are hard to reach by normal means of transportation.

In Cathedral, the large blue pale mountains are almost reminiscent of Lawren Harris paintings and his large glacial forms. This painting also invokes a sort spiritual feeling where the large mountain towers over the largest tree - calling for us to see it and possibly conquer it through walking up it.

In this large work by Alex Cameron, we are immediately struck by the large expanse of expressive mark making and colour choice. Here the artist depicts a large scene of water, trees, and mountains. The colours in the artwork are not always true to how they would be in nature, and Cameron is actively looking at new ways of seeing things. Here we see large dark green forms within the sky, suggesting movement or even possibly a flock of birds flying around the mountains.

"Red Pine Shore" shows us a large body of dark blue and purple waters, above which sits a bright yellow sky with patches of blue - suggesting a sunset. The earthy tones of reds, greens and yellows help to support the large trees in the foreground, the trees tower over the expanse of water showing the beauty and power which is Ontario's landscape.

Cameron ventured to remote locations in Canada and discovered the magnificent Canadian landscape. He held onto the images and transferred them onto canvases in combination with his audacity and creativity without restraint, applying the paint directly from the tube - a feeling of spontaneity. His application of paint adds to the real feeling of the works, where the thick tree branches have the energy to expand directly from the canvas and into our physical space.

A large dark tree takes the center stage with this painting, it is cast upon a orange and red background which suggests sunset or sunrise. The lake is a violet tone, which contrasts well with the pops of yellow that Cameron has placed in the foreground to act as part of the flora in the bushes and trees.

A sense of serenity lays over this painting, the lavender/pink sky feels like a fresh of breath air while watching the sunset. The marks made in this painting are much calmer than other Cameron paintings, they are controlled and allow us to study and recognize the forms of the depicted landscape. The trees appear to pop out from the ground due to this quality and they begin to take on a real form where one could imagine the tree within their own space. The title of "Emerald Waters" adds to this feeling of serenity, where the calm emerald tones feel cool and reflect the bright pink tones from up above.

"View Over Orange" is a painting which combines contrasting colours in order to create beautiful effects. Here Alex Cameron paints us large blue mountains that are sitting in bright orange waters, this contrast alone is enough to grab one's eye. The trees and the sky seem to mimic each other in a more relaxed execution of their presentation. The foreground gives way to let the mountainous background take the spotlight in this painting.
