Down in the Cove: A New Solo Exhibition at Madrona Gallery

I’m pleased to announce my upcoming solo exhibition, Down in the Cove! From September 26th through October 9th, Madrona Gallery is presenting 14 of my new pieces.

These new works explore my penchant for local bays and coves, along with the islands that accompany them. The use of downward point of view is a conscious effort to minimize the severity of the inescapable horizon line, a compositional element that I’ve always found challenging.

Much of the work displayed at this new exhibition has been informed and inspired by artists such as AJ Casson, EJ Hughes, Lawren Harris, and Emily Carr.

I invite you to visit Madrona Gallery at 606 View Street, Victoria, BC to view my work in person. If you’re unable to visit the gallery, a complete catalog is available on Madrona’s website.

  1. Hello! I have a framed monotype called “a high place” signed by Clay Anderson. I’ve tried for years to find information about the artist. Is it per chance one of yours? Purchased in Austin, Texas ‘97. It’s been a favorite of mine and always hanging in my home! Thank you!

      1. I can send you a photo of “a high place” but to me it appears to be a watercolor that reminds me of a high mesa or low mountainous area in the southwest US like New Mexico but I’ve had comments it could be a beach with with white sand(no obvious water in scene) with a swath of blue above. Simple but effective! Since I’m in Texas and have visited NM many times, I am drawn to it.
        Thank you for your reply and help!

  2. Clay,
    I purchased a print of “Abandoned” in 1992, # 118/590 from a shop In Armstrong BC.
    I was wondering if there are any prints of Stormy Skies or Indian Islet still out there for purchase?

  3. Just saw your painting of Smugglers Cove and recognized the entrance to the cove at once. I grew up in the house in the center of the bay. Your work made me very emotional. Thank you for you extraordinary talent
