David S. Robinson
Having lived in Scarborough most of my life, but born with extensive family roots in the farm country close to Hanover, Ontario, I grew up with an appreciation of nature and the simple beauty found all around us.
Getting formal art and art history education was a wonderful fulfilling experience and one that established a sound base for my life long exploration of landscapes, portraits, composition, balance and the effects of colour.
I graduated with an Honours Bachelor of Fine Arts degree ( Visual) from York University in November 1981. Since University I also have completed many courses at OCAD University, private life drawing lessons with Scott Darrach (five years), and Life drawing classes.
My art background includes formal art training in drawing, painting, print making (etching, Lithography-Limestone block and Lithoplate, wood cuts etc.) and sculpture.

Harsh Raghav
About the artiste:
Harsha is a self-taught mandala artist. A pharmacist by training, she started creating mandala art 5 years ago and her love for the art form grew ever since. Taking inspirations from nature and material worlds alike, she creates uncomplicated and easily accessible artwork. She also finds inspiration in rich heritage of Indian art and crafts.
A mandala is a complex abstract design that is usually circular in form. In fact, "mandala" is a Sanskrit word that means "circle". Mandalas generally have one identifiable center point, from which emanates an array of symbols, shapes, and forms.
Harsha was born and grew up in New Delhi, the capital city of India. She moved to Canada in year 2020 and has been living near the beautiful lake shores of south Ajax since 2021.
Still on the foot of the unending learning curve, Harsha aspires to continue to learn, explore, and create more art pieces hoping to make the world a little more beautiful.

Lauren Boissonneault ~ July 3 to August 7

Lauren Boissonneault
Lauren Boissonneault was born and raised in Peterborough, Ontario.
With a passion for the outdoors, resulting from a childhood of exploring the woods behind her home with her three older siblings, and family trips to Algonquin Park starting at one month old, she’s driven to paint our natural landscapes and was always deeply inspired by the work of Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven.
Having been homeschooled, Lauren’s mother took her to the Art Gallery of Peterborough often to craft and enrolled her in many art classes over the years. While she always dabbled in drawing, watercolour, and acrylic painting, she was first introduced to oils in 2013 by her aunt, late Inisfil artist, Lisa Rankin.
Lauren captures her images while doing the things she loves outdoors with her husband Travis and their dog Scout, like hiking, camping, and fishing. Every one of her paintings holds within it a great memory and she hopes to share those moments and the beautiful locations she’s stumbled upon with everyone that views her work.
With a focus on oil painting, Lauren prefers wood panel and live edge wood as her canvas, adding to the natural theme of her work.
