| Considered one of Canada's foremost landscape artists, Service has painted on location in Canada, Scotland and New York. Once a frequent attendee at the Emma Lake workshops (1980-1991), she first became known for her impressionistic prairie landscapes.
In recent years, Service simplified the concept of landscape to symbolic depictions of isolated landmarks — such as a cabin, a small group of trees, a dock or boat — against fields of solid colours in brilliant hues. These large-scale canvasses capture a non-specific essence of geography and glow with the technical and stylistic assurance of a mature painter. |
