About the Artist

Catherine McKinnon is a coastal artist from Nova Scotia, Canada. She has always been drawn to the ocean, wooden boats and the visual imagery of maritime life. Her coastal art depicts the majesty and beauty of the sea and the boats and ships that navigate its waters. 

McKinnon's passion for nautical painting led her to study fine arts at the Rhode Island School of Design. During her time there, she continued to explore her fascination with the ocean in her drawings and paintings.

She developed her own unique style of nautical art which is semi abstract, yet representational. She is particularly drawn to the colors and textures of the sea. As a result, her art reflects this through the use of vibrant colors and bold brushstrokes.

In addition to her artistic endeavors, McKinnon is a wooden schooner owner, a sailor and a fiddler. Also a passionate advocate for ocean conservation, she is a "Wavemaker" with Oceana, an international organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the world’s oceans on a global scale. 

Why Modern Coastal Art is special?

Modern Coastal Art has gained immense popularity over the years for its unique and contemporary take on traditional coastal themes. The blend of classic and modern elements in these artworks has made them a favorite among interior designers and homeowners alike. One such example of modern coastal art is the white canoe painting, which has a certain allure that makes it stand out from other traditional nautical artworks.

The white canoe painting is a modern interpretation of a classic coastal scene, featuring a serene image of a canoe floating peacefully on calm waters, surrounded by beautiful landscapes. The use of the color white in this artwork not only adds a sense of purity and simplicity but also helps to create a peaceful and calming atmosphere. The modern and minimalistic approach to this painting adds a contemporary edge that sets it apart from traditional coastal art, making it a beautiful addition to any living space.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the white canoe painting also has a symbolic significance. The canoe represents a journey or an adventure, while the calm waters symbolize peace and tranquility. This makes the artwork a perfect addition to any space where one wishes to create a calming and peaceful atmosphere, such as a living room, bedroom, or meditation space.

Overall, the modern coastal art with a white canoe painting is a beautiful and captivating piece that can transform any living space. With its unique blend of classic and contemporary elements, it is a timeless piece that will never go out of style.
