Dave Barrer crafts his art from his east coast studio in Nova Scotia, infusing his works with the diverse beauty of Canada. Barrer grew up amidst the rugged landscapes of Northern Ontario on the edge of Algonquin Park.
As a teenager, Dave explored the ancient voyageur canoe routes of the Mattawa/Ottawa river system, developing a deep appreciation for Canada’s stunning landscapes. This connection inspired him to create large,impressive landscapes using a process that is uniquely his.
Dave began his formal art education at Cambrian College in Sudbury, then moved to Georgian College in Barrie, his creative base for over 30 years. Across central Ontario, he developed his craft, engaging in art, design, and marketing projects that honed his skills and ignited his passion for creativity.
Dave’s latest collection showcases stunning Canadian landscapes on custom aluminium panels with an eggshell finish for ideal texture. Immersed in vivid Canada Red, these images burst into dazzling colours, with edges that blend seamlessly, celebrating the Canadian spirit in a captivating display.
The colour palette dances in tones, inviting you to lose yourself in the depths of the space. Each layout and sketch is crafted within divine proportions, infusing the images with a timeless balance that harks back to the Renaissance.
Dave has designed more than 50 magazine covers, reaching millions. His work, combining commissions and original art, has been recognised in prominent places like Ottawa’s Parliament buildings and Toronto’s Queens Park. He’s worked for the Canadian military, the Crown Collection, and various national non-profits.
