Lakshmi Liyanage
Born and raised in the beautiful sunny Island of Sri Lanka, I migrated and started a family in Montreal, Canada. I now call Oakville, Ontario, my home.
From my very young days sketching and painting was my passion. It gave me much pleasure to put on paper the beauty of nature. As a small child, doodling and painting was my favourite past time. Even though my parents encouraged my Art during the early years, I was discouraged to pursue it any further in my later years. I deviated from this path for quite a long time.
My full time career and raising a family did not allow me much time to pursue my artistic talents. However, whenever I could spare sometime, I managed to re-kindle my love of Art. Even though my original artworks were in watercolours, a few private lessons from a renowned Oakville Artist opened the door to a wonderful world of oil and acrylic paints. Working in Oil and Acrylic on Canvas, my paintings portray my love of natural beauty and surroundings, mostly in Canada, USA, Europe and Sri Lanka.
Most recently I took early retirement from my full time career and decided to devote the rest of my life for my passion to create beautiful art.
Thank you for visiting my website. Feel free to browse and enjoy my artwork. I would love to hear from you.
