Textures in Art

….for Tuesday Textures

Another great display from the McMichael Gallery.

Jon Sasaki: Homage is a suite of photographs depicting petri dishes with bloomed bacterial cultures derived from swabs of the palettes and easels used by members of the Group of Seven and Tom Thomson, objects held in the archives of the McMichael Canadian Art Collection.

Lines in Art – October Square

….thanks to Becky B for hosting https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/10/06/past-squares-6/

This month Becky is opening up October Square to any of the themes from the last four years. Today I’m choosing lines. On my recent trip to the McMichael Art Gallery in Kleinburg I was introduced to an artist that is new to me. Her name is Denyse Thomasos (1964–2012). She was a Trinidadian-Canadian artist whose epic paintings incorporate imagery from a range of sources, including Caribbean textiles, historic slave ships, industrial shipyards, graveyards, villages and maximum security prisons.

October Squares – Past Delights

….thanks to Becky B for hosting Past Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/10/01/past-squares/

There are 4 years of Becky’s Square Challenges with 12 topics. This month we’re looking back at the prompts from past years and we can choose any photo as long as it is square. For Day 1 I’m going back to Lines and I’ve chosen the architectural lines in the hallways at the McMichael Gallery.
