Erin Haight
Saskatoon-based visual artist and arts educator Erin Haight brings a deep connection to place throughout her work and teaching.
Her artwork explores the Canadian landscape, particularly the vast and varied skies, forests, and waters of Saskatchewan. Through layered acrylic techniques, thoughtful blending, and a careful study of colour and light, she captures both the dramatic and the serene qualities that shape our land. Her paintings are about conveying the feeling of a place, the quiet stillness before a storm, the warmth of evening light, or the emotional weight of an open horizon.

About
Erin Haight is a Saskatoon-based visual artist and arts educator whose work explores the Canadian, and more specifically, the Saskatchewan landscape. Her work reflects the drama and serenity of the vast and varied lands that shape our sense of place, identity and connection.
Grounded in this strong sense of place, her work seeks to capture the feelings and memories of time spent in nature. Whether depicting the silent snowfall on a northern lake, a steadfast elevator weathering a storm, the grandeur of a towering mountain, the quiet grace of a solitary tree or the playful movement of a running river, her paintings invite a shared emotion and experience.
Much of Erin’s inspiration comes from time spent on the land with family and friends camping, travelling, fishing, hiking and exploring much loved lakes and mountains. Sometimes inspiration comes from simple walks with her dog watching the sunset glow along the tree-lined banks of the Saskatchewan River. It can also come from long drives down secondary highways to see family watching the ever-changing fields and skies.
Erin also enjoys the connection and inspiration that comes through the experiences friends and artists have shared. This might be photographs of wildlife, the power of an approaching storm, or the first- person view of a waving, golden field during harvest. These shared moments and personal experiences continue to shape her artistic practice, celebrating the connection between place, memory and belonging.
