Beatrice Roche is a Canadian landscape painter whose work is deeply inspired by her lifelong connection to nature. 

Born in France, she immigrated to Canada as a child in 1965,  and was instantly captivated by the lush green canopies and diverse landscapes of her new home. 

Beatrice Roche is an avid Plein Air painter, working primarily in oils, acrylic, and gouache. Painting outdoors presents unique challenges—shifting light, changing weather, and persistent insects—but these very obstacles heighten her awareness of the delicate beauty of the natural world. 

Her work is not just about capturing a scene; it is a personal journal of the landscapes that have moved her, whether a vast horizon, a lone tree, the reflection of light on water, or a simple winding path.

Driven by a deep concern for climate change and the loss of natural habitats, Beatrice Roche sees her art as a way to celebrate and preserve the landscapes she loves. 

Each painting is a tribute to the fleeting beauty of nature, reminding us to pause, observe, and appreciate the world around us. 

She is a member of Credit Valley Artisans, Halton Hills Plein Air Artists, Fine Arts Society of Milton, and West Toronto Artists. Beatrice's work is also available for viewing at Norval Studios and Gallery, open Saturdays from noon to 4 PM or by appointment.
