Induction into the Ontario Society of Artists

After a long, early morning bus trip last December with 5 pieces of my work wrapped in a box under my arm, my work was presented to a jury of 50 in a beautiful old manor downtown Toronto at the Arts and Letters Club. This past June, as a result of the jurys decision, I had both the honour and privlege of being inducted into the Ontario Society of Artists.

S.N.B.A 2013 at the Louvre

Some pics of the show, as well as some close ups of some of my favourite painters work. The second pic is from the S.N.B.A. My work is to the left, I'm posing with a sculptor named Scott ( I wish I could remember his last name, I dug his work, and both he and his wife were super cool) in a "Thinker" pose. You know, the Rodin…. It's much cooler, but we thought we'd try it standing up:) Scotts work is behind him somewhere, no pic:(
