48” x 48” Oil 2026
What better welcome to our summer visitors enthralled with western and mountain culture than a “post-Stampede” breath of cleverly layered modern Westernism? Four incredible artists are gathered to win the west with wit and mad painting skills!
Calgary’s Gary McMillan, Banff’s Michael Cameron, Canmore’s Pascale Ouellet and Toronto’s Casey McGlynn will share the stage for “What In Tarnation”. Exhibition opening July 18, 2026
Michael Cameron studied at Carlton University, Ontario College of Art and Design and The Banff Centre for the Arts. He has been involved in numerous art exhibitions in Calgary, Banff and Toronto. He has been a Banff-based artist since a landscape artist residency at The Banff Centre.
"I'm not sure why I prefer the image to the idea, that's just the way it is. When I moved out west I met other painters doing the same sort of thing I was doing. I was exposed to a type of context in painting that I liked, so I stayed. Painting gives me the kind of space that I need for my ideas or images to evolve. It tends to slow things down enough to suit my personality. Painting makes me more aware of the place I live and hopefully the world that I live in.”
