This Thursday, March 31 (tomorrow evening), OCAD University presents Project 31, an auction featuring 31 pieces of art by OCAD faculty. Guess what? I’m one of the artists! Looking at the catalogue, I feel honoured to be associated with so many artists I admire, such as Fiona Smyth, Cathy Daley, Rae Johnson, John Scott, Blair Drawson and many more. We were allowed to direct the proceeds of the sale of our work to our choice of ways to help the institution. I’m sending mine (should it occur) toward students in financial need.

Here is my piece of art for auction, a portrait of a fictitious singer portraying Boris Godunov, an original painting from my book “A Nut At The Opera.” Hope to see you there!
