Artist Bio

Description

More than 500 paintings by Canadian Artist Cliff Eyland adorn the Meadows Library. Painted on file card sized panels, each miniature acrylic combines typical Canadian landscape features with imaginary sculptural or technological forms. The size of the paintings evokes the cards found in the analogue card catalogues of just a few decades ago.
