On of the finest Art Galleries on Vancouver Island  
 
Dennis Shields finds colour a magical source for his art. His "experience of conscious exploration and renewal within the world of colour" affirms for him the oft-quoted lines of J.W. Goethe that, "colours are the results of the deeds and sufferings of light." Prior to entering the School of Painting at the Rudolph Steiner Institute in Switzerland in 1973, he toured the famed art museums of Great Britain, Holland and Italy. Born in North Vancouver, Dennis eventually returned to the West Coast, where he takes his inspiration from his natural surroundings. In addition to Sooke Harbour House, his work is displayed in the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria's Art Rental and Sales.
