En Route, is a quietly powerful oil-on-panel painting by Ottawa artist Erin Robertson, layered with resin to bring a luminous, atmospheric depth. The semi-abstract landscape merges transparent and matte surfaces, evoking a sense of movement, mood, and melancholy — a journey in more ways than one. At 12″ × 24″, this piece is intimate yet expansive, and the subtle interplay of texture makes it a captivating focal point for any room.
Erin Robertson is an Ottawa–Gatineau artist celebrated for her imaginative, story-driven paintings and sculptures. Working in oil, resin, bronze, ceramics, and papier-mâché, she creates art that blends everyday scenes with a sense of whimsy and quiet magic. Her work feels both familiar and dreamlike, inviting viewers to step into thoughtful, often playful narratives.
Originally from Cornwall, Ontario, Robertson spent part of her childhood in East Africa, a formative experience that broadened her outlook and fuels the unique perspectives in her art. She studied at the Ontario College of Art and the University of Guelph, with additional training in Paris and Tanzania, and her work has since appeared in numerous exhibitions. Her sculptures and paintings are held in public and private collections, including the City of Ottawa’s art collection.
Beyond her studio practice, Robertson is widely respected as an educator and community builder. She maintains a working studio in Gatineau and has taught at the Ottawa School of Art, mentoring emerging artists and contributing to the region’s vibrant creative community. Her public art projects, gallery exhibitions, and longstanding commitment to arts education have made her a recognized and influential figure in the National Capital arts scene.
