JEFF N. BARDEAU

My name is Jeff N. Bardeau. I was born in Lindsay, Ontario, Canada. Along the way I have met many wonderful people and have experienced many adventures that have richly inspired me. I have had my Art exhibited at the Lindsay Art Gallery.

The Following are a few thoughts and ideas relating to the concepts of my Art.

When I close my eyes, my minds eye awakens to a glowing curtain of light through which I see my altered state floating on an ocean of images and ideas that flow to the edge of my identity. Sometimes raging and sometimes whispering like a tide under the caress of a full moon in October reaching for the shore leaving my old soul in it's wake. The familiarity of the gray matter sands brings to me an overwhelming sense of timelessness and serenity where my creations greet me like a passionate desire waiting to be fulfilled.

This is a world, where anything is possible. Anything can be real. It is only limited by how much you need to dream. Look beyond your eyes! Because, here the winds are made of vibrant colours. Mists resonate of voices that call out from the beauty within. Where light and darkness are fused as one.

I become one with all the beings on this plane. I feel a sense of total contentment every time I'm able to meld this world with reality as it's perceived. I become an extension of the powers that be-through my brush.

I hope all that I have said makes some kind of sense. If it does then I can smile a little bigger. If it does not, try thinking with your heart.

I am having a showing of my Art at the Kent Farndale Gallery, 231 Water St., Port Perry, On., Feb 19 to Mar 9 / 2000. I am also available for private commissions. No project is too wild!
