Abstract
Portions of the following are taken from an interview with the artist on October 17, 2011. Once an avid skier, Claude A Simard, Canadian by birth and a lifelong resident of Canada, is quite accustomed to long, white winters; he is, however, a lot less enthusiastic about winter now that he no longer skis. He has found as he grows older that a solid surface under his feet has become more important. But, he adds, he tries not to complain and looks for the positive aspects of winter. Simard (2011, p. 93) has written, âWhen winter gets really fed up with autumn, it whites it out, the way I do when a painting takes me nowhere. Snow. What a pain! So long, the wait for springtime. Never ending. Blinding whites. Boring!â Consequently, he focuses on the bright blues, reds, and greens that skaters and skiers wear and eschews the bleak landscapes so gloriï¬ed by some of his Canadian colleagues. He would rather paint skaters on lakes than frozen lakes without skaters. People in the colorful clothes of winter are spotlighted in his paintings, while the cold, white landscape is minimized.
