Press release
Arts Alive Friday December 4th Earth Gallery brings you a once in a life time opportunity in down town Garberville to buy a fine art print from collectible Canada artist Autumn Skye Morrison. Autumn’s work is evocative of neo erotic classical painting from the 1930’s but with a modern surreal twist. Autumn is part of a growing movement of artist that are truly visionary. Autumn is grounded in classical nude fine art but has welded a modern futuristic landscape around her subject giving the paintings a surreal feeling. The Barefoot Burlesque performer will add a special touch to the evening by performing a short show at 7pm and serving treats during the evening.
Earth Gallery is hoping that people will come out of the mountains and support this special art show on Friday, if you want to a see preview of some of Autumn Skye”s work please check us out on FaceBook by looking up Earth Gallery.

Autumn Skye Morrison - Bio Autumn Skye Morrison was born on the Parrsboro Shore in Nova Scotia, in June of 1983. As she grew up, her family gradually made their way West across Canada. Her father settled in the small town of Field in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, as well as Columbia Lake. Her mother and stepfather built their home “off the grid” between Powell River and Lund on the Sunshine coast. Spending her youth between the majesty of the mountains and the serenity of the ocean and lush forest, Autumn Skye developed a deep appreciation for natural beauty, and a sense of wonder at life and the world around her.
As soon as she was old enough to hold a pencil, she would spend countless hours playing with colors and figures.
She has traveled throughout North America, Mexico, South East Asia, and Hawaii, spellbound by unfamiliar landscapes and the cultures therein. Inspired, the impressions linger with her when she returns home to her studio.
Autumn Skye lives and paints in her home North of Powell River, overlooking a sweeping expanse of ocean, islands, mountains, and sky. She considers herself among the blessed of the blessed, and lives each day in gratitude and joy of being able to share her art and inspiration.
