Painting Toronto- Commerce Court East

Painting Toronto - Commerce Court E The shapes and presence of the downtown towers have always fascinated me as a photographer, especially first visiting when first in Toronto then later working in them and in the underground city called the PATH, and knowing Downtown Toronto very well. As a photographer the angles were always challenging, sharp and rather aggressive even as I was intrigued by the magnificent architecture. In these days of covid they sit mostly empty as us Baystreeters remain Remote. Painting the buildings presented me with the same challenge, and I always wanted to soften the angles and imagine more way out colour. (For that reason I ended my initial painting experiments several times). Hard angles of the towers don't give me the same feels, but it's fun to revisit the photos and memories. Colour is what we need now with everything fluid as it is today. So with my collage creation that's just what I did, transforming these older and newer skyscrapers with watercolour wash and lights and artsy collage while I work towards impressionistic less detailed shapes and colour.

While streets are deserted in these times of #covid, their architecture remains a wonderful source of inspiration.

Art in Uncertain Times - Somerset House

Somerset House London's working arts centre, built on historic foundations around one of the most beautiful courtyards in Europe. it was built in 15 47 and has evolved from a palation building for Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset to a place for exiled Queens, parliament offices to art galleries. After its original owner was executed Somerset House, in its unfinished state, became the property of the King. Its Architeture is Neo Classical and it has a famous 3-sided courtyard. Somerset House was repaired after damage from the war and today remains a centre for creativity and arts. It used to be the home of births deaths and registrations. In the summer the fountains play and in Winter there is ice skating.

Chateau Frontenac - Vieux Quebec #2

Chateau Frontenac Chateau Frontenac in Old Quebec, the most photographed hotel in the world for quite some time. Check out more on my Instagram post and find this artwork in the Artstore. Inspired to do this artwork by a collector and fan of my work who happened to see my original photo on one of my designer face masks! Creating this artmade for very happy memories.

Hosues of Parliament, Westminster Bridge

Mixed Media Oil on Canvas. There were a few inspirations for this painting of the HoP, London, and for every painting, each artwork I create I learn something new, especially about myself, whether that's what I am trying to express or what direction the story wants to go. It's always an adventure but you must be courageous to step into the unknown... This painting is based on a photograph I took of the Houses of Parliament from the South Bank. As much as I love the photo (still one of my all time favourite shots and the actual view has changed in a few ways) I was happy to depart from the photo to go in my own direction and create my own impressionistic painting, full of brightness and colours.

Chateau Frontenac - Vieux Quebec (#1)

The Fairmont Chateay Frontenca, Quebec City... an amazing building and quite a feat to capture it in its entirety. I still remember it. In this art piece the focus is completely on the building with the texture embellishments supporting the focal point of the Chateau. In a different version I include the promenade and wall below and I build that into the piece with even more texture.

There in the Distance

St Paul's from Fleet Street Art in Uncertain Times: There in the Distance. St Paul's from Fleet Street. St Paul's Cathedral is one of my favourite places to visit and is a wonderful basis of inspiration for both my photos and my artwork...and this is one of my favourite views because of the deliberately designed alignment of famous buildings.
