"The simplicity of the similarly shaped cyclinder jars, the flatness the painter intentionally presents, the limitation of his colour, as if we are viewing through a strange filter, are elevated to something ethereal by his painting technique." —The Evening Times Globe William Forrestall (b. 1959) graduated with a BFA from Mount Allison University in 1982. He continues to paint full time having exhibited in numerous solo and group exhibitions in the Maritimes and Ontario. While father (Tom Forrestall) and son share a fascination for egg tempera any similarity between them as artists stops there. William Forrestall's structured "natures mortes" often combine the natural beauty of flowers in bloom with the austerity of forgotten obects-animate and inanimate elements which are inextricably linked in time.
