I’m excited to announce that I’ll be a part of the 62nd Toronto Outdoor Art Fair, taking place at Nathan Phillips Square July 7 – 9 and online at TOAF.ca from July 2 – 9, 2023! 🗓 Don’t forget to follow @torontooutdoorart and the hashtag #TOAF62 to explore this year’s amazing Artists!
July 8-21 2022 I had the pleasure of showing my body of work entitled Joy?! at the Paul Elia Gallery in Hamilton.
JOY?! 24×36 acrylic on panel
Using realistic imagery infused with absurdity, this series conveys a humorous look at life through the ailment of the psyche, demonstrating the connection between mental illness and the smiling face presented to the world. Joy?! is the parody of an outwardly happy appearance and the fragility of the self underneath.
I don’t manage my blog very well. I’m a little scattered between working, painting and other commitments. Here’s some recent work and some upcoming shows!!
MERRILY ENNUI GO! 16×20 acrylic on birch panel
I painted this live at the Masquerade fundraiser 2023 in Hamilton. It was auctioned live at the end of the night. Proceeds went to CMHA Hamilton.
Providence 12×12 acrylics on canvas
This one was painted as a commission for the talented Erin Wheatley.
I will also be at the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair at booth 326 July 7-9 come by and say hi!Coming in July 2024 a solo show at Paul Elia Gallery in Hamilton. http:paulelia.ca
I was commissioned to do this painting by my friend Raf for his friend Sara. She lost her brother and now she has a Blue Jay hanging around her house who’s always calling to her to for attention. Perhaps it’s more than just coincidence?
I had the honour of being included in my friend Nathan’s show at the AGH. Nathan is doing a residency there and curated this show himself. These are my submissions!
