Madeleine Gross is a Toronto-based artist who customizes her photographs with paint in a way designed to ‘abstract landscapes but without completely abstracting reality’. Gross intuitively applies gesture, texture, color and strokes with paint with the idea of emulating an immersive reality to create the sensation of actually being there just by looking. Positive connotations are at the heart of her work, with each of the photographs taken on her trips across the globe, all enhanced by a warm and bright color palette applied through a few happy strokes of a brush.
