She grew up in the small community of Shirley, surrounded by beaches, forests and wildlife, and those landscapes became an important source for her work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA self-taught painter, Davies works primarily in acrylic. Wildlife has long been a favourite subject, but her work also includes portraiture and commissioned murals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional Coast Salish art is built around a strong visual structure, using geometric forms, negative space and repeated shapes to construct figures and designs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDavies brings elements of that language into a much freer contemporary style. Her simplified forms and broad, saturated palette give the work an illustrative, almost storybook quality. Coast Salish shapes appear within the compositions, but they are only one part of her visual language. \u003cbr\u003eThe result is work that carries a connection to Coast Salish design while remaining distinctly her own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003ca href=\"#\"\u003e \u003csmall class=\"right\"\u003e+\u003c\/small\u003e Behind the Artwork \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eBears carry strong associations with strength, protection and family, but \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eOne Last Swim\u003c\/em\u003e feels\u003c\/strong\u003e less like a symbolic portrait of the bear and more like a moment observed in nature.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree bears are together in the water as the sun sits low behind them. \u003cbr\u003eThe title, \u003cem\u003eOne Last Swim\u003c\/em\u003e, gives the scene its meaning. \u003cbr\u003eIt suggests a final moment before something changes, whether the end of a day, a season, or simply the time to move on. \u003cbr\u003eDavies does not tell us which, and the painting does not need her to.
