This is a sketch done from the Todmorden museum site looking across the valley at the Minto apartment building gong up at the Broadview-Pottery Road intersection.  It is an interesting piece of contemporary architecture and is bound to have a huge effect on the naighborhood as it is built to entice upscale professional people to this average income area. It is also a visual treat from the old East York format.

After a life as a cartographer and architectural illustrator, I
enjoy to portrait in detail the architecture of Toronto,
the places where we mingled, where we worked, where we loved, places
of worship and learning,
the Toronto we carry in our minds.

This painting is part of a large collection of oils and watercolours  about the architecture of Toronto. I trust that one day they will be considered historical pieces of a  Toronto relentlessly changing by modernity.

This is one of a series I’m doing using my old styrofoam palettes covered with oil paint, to make images using exacto knife and then squishing into plaster (gesso etc.)
Have done buildings, objects and this landscape.

Born in Northern Ireland, I have always had a great interest in colour and texture and have spent many years working on tapestries and weavings. Since 2001 I have been painting scenes of Northern Ireland and Italy in oils and landscapes in pastel. My most recent works have been multi-media abstracts.

This double portrait was done at the club.  Two excellent subjects….having a subject who maintains a bright smile for an evening is an extraaordinary treat and then being able to add – as planned – her fiance to make a two-for-one was a
special pleasure.  They are charming people and I hope I captured something of that in this effort.

This is done in acrylic on canvas. It is 18 ” wide by 22″ high. This portrait of a young boy was commissioned by his aunt who has since become a good friend of mine. I love his sweet trusting face!
