Tom Thomson (1877–1917) is one of Canada’s most famous artists: his landscape paintings of northern Ontario have become iconic artworks, well-known throughout the country and a critical touchstone for Canadian artists. Thomson was passionate about the outdoors, and he was committed to experimenting with new ways to paint landscape. He had several friends who shared these interests, such as A.Y. Jackson (1882–1974), Lawren Harris (1885–1970), and J.E.H. MacDonald (1873–1932); a few years after his premature death, these friends helped establish the Group of Seven, a collection of artists often credited with transforming Canadian art by creating modern depictions of national landscapes.

  • Elements & Principles of Design
    CANADIAN ART: The Late 1800’s Canadian artists working in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s painted landscapes in a fairly realistic style. They painted what they saw without expressing any feeling or emotions. This style of painting landscapes with a soft, quiet, tame, and inviting appearance originated in Europe. These landscapes were full of realistic details and natural colours, but they lacked personal expression. Homer Watson John A. Fraser September Afternoon, Eastern At the Rogers Pass, Summit of the Townships 1873 Selkirk Range, B.C. 1886 CANADIAN ART: THE GROUP OF SEVEN The Group of Seven was founded in 1920 to develop a new style of Canadian painting with a distinct Canadian identity. These artists painted what they saw, but added imagination and feeling. They were especially interested in expressing the wild, untamed spirit of the Canadian wilderness in their paintings. The artists often travelled into the wilderness to make sketches in the open air. They wanted to capture the atmosphere, the effects of light, and the spirituality and ruggedness of the northern Canadian landscape. In order to accomplish this, their style was also rugged, expressive, and powerful. THE GROUP OF SEVEN PAINTING STYLE a)Colours: bold and vibrant or bold and dark/dull high contrast between lights and darks b) Shapes/Forms: simplified with few details almost 2 dimensional abstract c) Brushstrokes: thick paint application (impasto) often visible (not blended) Franklin Carmichael Lake Wabagishik 1928 Mirror Lake 1929 Arthur Lismer A September Gale, Georgian Bay 1921 Bright Land 1938 J.E.H.

  • Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven
    Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven In the early decades of the twentieth century, circumstances brought together several artists who explored and fell in love with the varied landscapes of Canada. Collectively, they agreed that the country’s magnificent wilderness regions needed to be recorded in a painting style that captured the untouched beauty of the landscapes that inspired them. Today, these artists have become the most famous amongst Canadian artists and, indeed, have become national icons. In their early careers many of the artists who would later form the Group of Seven were employed at commercial design firms. It was while working at Toronto-based design firm Grip Ltd. that Tom Thomson, J.E.H. MacDonald, Arthur Lismer, Frederick Varley, Frank Johnston and Franklin Carmichael first met and discovered their common artistic interests. The artists began taking weekend sketching trips together and would often gather at Toronto’s Arts and Letters Club to socialize and discuss new directions for Canadian art. Their focus on the Canadian landscape as the subject for their art reflected an increasingly nationalistic sentiment within a deep-rooted love for the natural environment of Canada. The Group’s intention was to produce work in a style that broke with European traditions in art. Their bright and bold use of paint and colour seemed a suitable complement to the aggressive expansion that the country was experiencing at the outset of the 1920s. Before the end of the decade, this new and distinctive painting style was supported by the National Gallery of Canada and gained an enthusiastic audience amongst the general public as well.

    Tangled Woods 36 / 37 Artists associated with the Group of Seven spent much of their time in the woods, camping and sketching on extended paint- ing trips—in tangled territory, not always easily accessible. They found ample inspiration in Ontario’s vast forests, in their characteristic play of light and shadows and glorious seasonal colors. Tom Thomson depicted deep woods with dense foliage and a twisted screen of trees in his Northern River (winter 1914–15) to conjure up a sense of silence and pristine isolation. Lawren Harris’s anthropomorphic silhouetted trees in changing light, in turn, evoke a primordial territory filled with potential in Beaver Swamp, Algoma (1920). A close-up view of the water’s edge in his Beaver Pond (1921) reveals dead tree trunks, par- tially submerged, standing sentinel on the margins of impene- trable, dark woods. In contrast, Arthur Lismer and Franklin Carmichael painted resplendent trees dappled with sunlight and infused with vivid colors as an offering of dazzling optimism. F. H. Varley’s singular work Magic Tree (1924) is a portrait of a swirl of sinuous branches entwined around a thick trunk engulfed in a bed of fallen autumn leaves. A small, rousing painting, it is Tangled Woods infused with power and emotion, conveying the artist’s viva- cious vision of Canadian woods. Collectively, these canvases reveal the artists’ search for new ways of expressing their relationships to place and their exu- berance for simplified forms and energetic colors. They chose to focus on the stirring beauty of Ontario’s majestic trees and forests, despite the relentless presence of the logging industry.

  • Franklin Carmichael Biography
    ARTIST BROCHURE Decorate Your Life™ ArtRev.com Franklin Carmichael Franklin Carmichael was born May 4, 1890. His father was a carriage maker. Carmichael arrived at Toronto when he was 20 years old and entered the Ontario College of Art in Toronto, where he studied with William Cruickshank and George Reid. In 1911, he began working as an apprentice at Grip Ltd. for $2.50 a week. He then joined Tom Thomson and other painters who were training to be serious artists. On weekends, Carmichael went on sketching trips with the other artists. In 1913, Carmichael went to Belgium to study painting but came back to Ontario to rejoin with the rest of the artists. After returning to Canada because of World War I, he painted watercolours and oils of Northern Ontario landscapes. Carmichael was greatly influenced by Tom Thomson and shared space with him at the Studio Building in 1914. Carmichael married in 1915 and spent a lot of his time with his family. He was also on the fringe of the group because of his difference in age and was closely associated with the newer members of the Group of Seven. Carmichael along with and founded the Ontario Society of Painters in Watercolour in 1925. He also founded the Canadian Group of Painters in 1933. He taught at the Ontario College of Art from 1932 to 1945. Franklin Carmichael died on October 24, 1945 of pancreas cancer.
