| A new work by Charles Weiss |
This year's
Fin, Fur and Feather animal art show will feature fish art by
Charles Weiss, a former Bramptonian. Now a resident of Toronto, Charles has exhibited with the group periodically since Artway Gallery started in 1998. Featured will be his drawings, paintings, and wood carvings of fish.
A freelance artist, Weiss' illustrations appear in magazines like
Musky Hunter,
Ontario Out of Doors,
Dogs in Canada, and
The Canadian Fly Fisher. He has been featured on The Pet Network, was artist-in-residence at Sandbanks Provincial Park in 2008, and painted two of the famous Moose in the City sculpture, seen throughout Toronto in 2000. He is a regular exhibitor at the Spring Fishing and BoatShow.
If you stop by Annette's Bakery in Shoppers World (southwest corner of the mall, near PharmaPlus), take a look up, and you'll see an advance peek at his work. A ceiling tile painted by Weiss is a permanent feature at the store.
Also confirmed for the exhibit are
Ryan C. Thompson, exhibiting his animal hybrid illustrations, and
Paul Highgate, showing his fine line scratchboard wildlife images. Ryan is featured in an article in
The Brampton Guardian, "
Animals at Artway in July", to be published in print tomorrow.
The exhibit will run at
Artway Gallery in Shoppers World, from June 24 to June 29, 2011.
