Beautiful Skies and Landscapes from artist Jim Cobban

Canvas Gallery is happy to have received some gorgeous new oil landscapes from painter Jim Cobban.

Born and currently residing in Canada, Jim has travelled the world extensively to developing countries, eventually ending up in the fabled artists colony of San Miguel in Mexico where he began painting in oil. Since then he has been developing and continually refining his technique, experimenting with the many capacities of oil paint to reflect the qualities of sensual experience.

To achieve depth and luminosity in his works he builds and deepens his image by applying several layers, or glazes, of paint one over the other until a rich and intensely luminous, seemingly inner-lit image emerges.
