He finds inspiration in painting as a means of drawing connections between the natural environment and spirituality, trying to capture the emotional memory of a place in the way our minds fuse together different memories into one event. By blurring the lines between photography and painting, and between our familiar surroundings and the unrevealed forces of a co-existing hidden world, he has developed a magical realism that he hopes will reveal the mystical energy of nature and inspire you to see it with enchanted eyes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>During the workshop, Steven Nederveen will introduce his work through <span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">audiovisual presentations, highlighting how it fits into the history of Canadian painting<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">.
