Northern Shore (30×40 oil painting on canvas)

Price Range: $750-$3,500 Cyril Cox was born in 1958 in Toronto Ontario, Canada. By the age of fourteen he was already showing an artistic talent, and in the early 80’s he studied both graphic art and illustration. Cyril’s career as a fine artist officially launched in 1989 when he won best of show honors at the National Canadian Chrysler Wildlife competition. Cox is best known for his riverscapes and landscape paintings. Dramatic lighting is key for Cox, for he feels that nothing can create emotion or feeling in a painting like a certain light quality. Cox certainly displays his deep understanding of light and its relationship with the surrounding landscape in each of his paintings. Cox paints with such beautiful accuracy what one can almost smell the fresh air within each scene.
