Charlesworth Bio Title



Rod Charlesworth Bio PhotoRod was born in 1955 in northern B.C. and moved to the Okanagan Valley at a young age. The surrealists influenced his earliest paintings. He then discovered the works of the impressionist’s school which has taken him to his current artistic interests that include a keen interest in experimenting with colour and the physical qualities of paint. Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven have also had a profound influence on his work.

 

“Painting becomes tedious when the ultimate goal of the painter is to recreate the external work. I have always felt that the painting exists only within its own borders. This allows the curious mind of the artist to say -What if I did this?”

 

Rod’s work is now collected worldwide and he is committed to painting images that have a strong Canadian cultural influence. Whether this is expressed through his bold landscapes or his more recent whimsical images of children at play.

 

Rod’s artwork is in numerous galleries across Canada as well as in many corporate and private collections.
