About "Offering"

Harold Feist’s Offering is a striking, lush abstract painting rendered in rich colours. The fan-like form radiates from the base of the canvas in golden hues, burgundy, blues, and purple against a dark canvas. Feist was known for his intuitive use of colour as a visually powerful language.

“(Using colour) I could turn off any logic when I worked, and this leaves the door open for some other faculty to come through.” Harold Feist

Born in Texas, (1945-2021) won a scholarship for the University of Illinois where he switched his studies from architecture to fine art acquiring a masters at the Maryland Institute College of Art. While pursuing his own art, he took a job teaching at the Alberta University of the Arts in Calgary followed by the University of Regina and Mount Allison University in New Brunswick. He decided to paint full time in the late seventies.
His work is held in both private and public collections in Canada and the U.S. including the Art Gallery of Ontario and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
