Soliloquy

About Soliloquy

This contemporary abstract composition is in gray hues with colourful accents.

Clouds of muted shades—grays, mauve, yellow, melon, blues, pink, and pale green appear as expressive passages across the white picture plane in this engaging piece by claudia jean mccabe. The Canadian artist has been exploring colour, abstract form and texture for more than three decades. Curated calligraphic markings in black and punches of bright red add visual interest and lyrical detail.

“Colour, form, freedom, harmony, asymmetry – all continue to awaken my soul, fuel my passion, and draw me ever closer to creativity’s infinite mysteries.” claudia jean mccabe

Claudia Jean McCabe was born in Montreal in 1946. In a moment of inspiration, she decided to return to school in 1989 and obtained an Honours diploma in Graphic Design from George Brown College in Toronto.
She discovered both a passion and a talent for painting, and in that same year, she was also elected to the Society of Canadian Artists. She has been a member of the Prince Edward County Arts Council since 2010. McCabe has conducted workshops and taught art classes in various institutions, including the Fred Varley Art Gallery, St. Lawrence College, and Loyalist College. She has been the recipient of many awards, including, most recently, Arts in the County’s Oeno Gallery Award of Excellence. Her work has been exhibited at numerous galleries in Ontario, including Cibo’s Gallery in Toronto, the Harbour Gallery in Oakville, and the Sandra Whitton Gallery in Kingston. Claudia McCabe’s paintings can be found in both private and corporate domestic and international collections in the US, Britain, Australia, Argentina, Brazil, New Zealand and Switzerland.
