The massive Danforth Bridge always captivated me. My first painting of it, a full size watercolour, bought by The City of Toronto, was of the bridge before the protection at the top, which may be very convenient, but ugly. Its real name is the Prince Edward Viaduct System, or more commonly know as The Viaduct, and it was completed in 1918.

I managed to sketch this picture the week before the TTC retired the old street cars. Great memories.

Title: Temple of Apollo and Church of St Paul, Syracuse, Sicily
Artist: Pat Vicari
About the painting: I found this an eloquent juxtaposition of the very ancient, and pagan religious monument and an eighteenth-century Christian church.

This is another view of this area of Jarvis and King which appeals me a lot because for its 19th century buildings and modern Toronto.This full size watercolour is called “St. Lawrence Hall at Jarvis and King, Toronto”. The St. Lawrence Hall was built in 1850 to serve as the City’s public meeting place. Today it is the facility of choice for the film industry, TV series and music videos.

This painting called Cityscape Europe # 1 was inspired by a cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam where I often found myself up near a castle, or on the old city walls, looking down on a city. All you can see are colourful roofs, and perhaps some people. In the painting I am making fun of the scene, while depicting it as a happy place worth remembering.

The watercolour is of an unforgettable walk down a Cabbagetown street with my wife Sandy and our golden retriever Jessie, one morning in early November. It had snowed overnight when some foliage still remained on the chestnut trees. The quality of the light was soft and magical, and I have tried to capture it by avoiding contrasting tones.

This watercolour called Childhood Summer reminds me of a street near where I grew up in Oakville. It was a carefree time. We raced outside after breakfast and returned when the street lights went on.

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.
