Art Show Opening: Spirit of Canada: An Artist’s Journal of the Canadian Landscape by John Stuart Pryce
“The Golden Years” by John Stuart Pryce
About John Stuart Pryce
John Stuart Pryce
John’s love for art began at a very early age, as he discovered the great satisfaction derived from his ability to draw and paint. He continued developing his artistic interests, and eventually became an art major at the highly acclaimed H.B. Beal Tech. in London, Ontario. Since that time John has worked and studied in Montreal, Chicago and Toronto. During a successful career as an architectural illustrator, his work was used in projects around the world. His seemingly loose yet eloquent technique is the result of years of experience in the disciplines of drawing, colour and composition.
John currently divides his time between painting and sharing his artistic knowledge with others through his painting workshops.
“The purest and most rewarding form of painting, in my opinion, is “en plein air” as it challenges all of the skills and discipline of the artist.” Show Dates: April 12 – August 29, 2019
Location: 634 Humboldt Street, Victoria BC
Hours of Operation:
10am-5pm, Tuesday-Sunday May 20 to August 29, 10am-5pm daily The artwork is for sale.
