This painting was inspired by the ever-present history of the Asbridge's Estate. The house and adjoining studio was occupied by the first settlers arriving from the United States in the 19th century.
Along with my students and guest artists, I will be unveiling some recent works at the historic Steamwhistle Brewery. Please join us Wednesday, October 1 from 6pm-12.
I studied sculpture at the School of Applied Art and Design in Europe where I worked in clay and stone. After moving to Toronto, I continued my education in the Continuing Education Department at the Ontario College of Art.
My work is on display in corporate and private collections in North America and Europe.
I am a member and past elected officer of the Ontario Society of Artists, founded in 1872 which is the oldest art society in Upper Canada.
I teach drawing, acrylic and oil painting at George Brown College in Toronto and at Canadore College in Parry Sound. I am an owner of the Stefan Galvanek Fine Art School and Studio in Toronto.
