Nan Hogg Featured Artist
Nan Hogg has been a respected artist and champion of the Guelph art scene for decades. Her watercolours and oil paintings of Guelph landscapes grace the walls of countless Guelph homes. Living in Guelph since the 1980s, in 1996 she moved to the area commonly known as “The Ward”. This neighbourhood, spanning over a century, has a rich history of immigration, early Guelph businesses and colourful stories.
Nan has created paintings of many iconic buildings, which are landmarks to those who have lived there, honouring their important place in our urban landscape. Whether depicting commercial, industrial or residential scenes, her work evokes an acute sense of light and shadow, often with a hint of mystery that is reminiscent of Alex Coleville.
She holds a BFA from the University of Guelph.
