“Artist Val Nelson paints realistic scenes whose forms – chairs, trees, tables – are almost hidden by her layered gobs of paint, like our gathering of information as we gaze quickly over objects. Life in the fast lane. No time to really notice. But if one looks longer, patterns emerge; and therein lies a message. Look. Longer. ” Montreal Gazette online, July 2012
