Robert Bozak attend the Kootenay School of Art in BC from 1963 to 1964. He then went on to receive an Honours Diploma at the Alberta College of Art in 1967 and a MFA from York University in 1988. Until about 1969, Bozak worked primarily as a potter, moving into a variety of media from lithograph to neon.

In 1972 he became interested in representational imagery. He says in his AGO Artist's with their Work series, "Television was mainly responsible for involving me with my environment and, as a result, for my using it as a source for art works. People and their activities are important to me - my activity is that of documenting this importance." Throughout the 1970's and 1980's he did a series of portraits of great Canadians such as Stompin' Tom Connors and Foster Hewitt.

He was also an active player in the London, Ontario art scene. He along with Curnoe and Favro was a founding member of the Forest City Gallery, one of the first parallel galleries in Canada. Since 1997, Bozak has been a regular participant in "Fire and Earth" the Contemporary Canadian Ceramics exhibit. Bozak has had many one-man exhibitions, including one at the Woodstock Art Gallery in 1978, and is represented in several important public collections.

Bio / Statement

Betty was born in St Thomas, Ontario and has resided in Elgin County all her life. Drawing and sketching from an early age, she first started painting in 1973. Studying with many teachers over the last 30 years has broadened her scope in techniques and experimentation, but she admits her realistic style is her own and she paints what she feels. Spending a lot of time in the north, Betty has learned to appreciate clear lakes, beautiful sunsets and the reflection of nature. Oil, watercolour or pastels are the mediums she uses to capture scenes and landscapes from her travels abroad. She also has a special interest in painting the local history of Elgin County. Betty firmly believes that an original painting is a gift from the heart. Each painting begins with a special experience or thought and ends on the canvas as a one-of-a-kind image. Betty loves to spend time with her grandchildren, watching as their artistic abilities develop and grow. Betty is a member of the Port Stanley Artists Guild, the Lambeth Art Association, and a long-time member of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority. Her paintings can be viewed at Portside Gallery in Port Stanley where she is a co-owner. Many of Betty’s paintings can be seen on the wall of private homes & business offices around Ontario and as far away as the Southern States, Holland and Scotland.

Amanda was born, grew up, and currently resides in St.Thomas, Ontario. She has always been drawn to creative endeavours and fell in love with printmaking while attending the University of Western Ontario, from which she graduated with an Honors Bachelor of Art degree in Visual Arts, a Graduate Diploma in Arts Management, and a Bachelor of Education degree. She has been building her body of work by creating limited-edition multi-colour relief prints using mainly

linocuts for over ten years. She continues to print through the partnership she has enjoyed with the Riverside Print Group from Cambridge, Ontario, who have generously allowed her access to their printing press over the years. She is also experiments with hand pressing linocuts in her own studio at home. She is a current member of The Art Emporium with a permanent display in the boathouse gallery, and has shown at many outdoor art festivals throughout southwestern Ontario, in local group shows, and in other galleries in St.Thomas, London, Woodstock, Waterloo, and Brampton.

Amanda considers her art-making process to be one of both deconstruction and reconstruction of landscape spaces. The design process divides the landscape into shapes but the printing process rebuilds the landscape through the layering of colour. This creates something familiar but precarious, as nature is, and comments on the beauty and destruction of natural spaces. For her, the printmaking process is symbolic: as many of these places are being destroyed, her art-making process allows her to put them back together, building them piece by piece. But there is always the moment of realization that the reconstruction is symbolic, and in reality all we have left are these reconstructed images and not reconstructed spaces.

Written by Miss Carolyn Curtis, 1973 (from the files of the St. Thomas-Elgin Public Art Centre)

"Born in 1903 in St. Thomas, Ontario

Attended Wellington Street School.

I always liked to draw as a child - when around 12 years old did a few watercolours and pastels, mostly from imagination - had no training except what was taught in school in those days.  A neighbour woman took me one day to show my efforts to Mr. Ross Osgood. I don’t recall what he said of my work but I remember his as a kindly man.

I attended St. Thomas Collegiate, graduating in Jr. Matriculation in 1922 - graduated in Household Science at Alma College in 1924 with the intentions of going onto McDonald Hall in Guelph to study to be a dietitian.  Because of a hearing problem, was advised not to take up this line of work. My mother then suggested that I go to the Ontario College of Art in Toronto. I was not at all enthusiastic, but agreed to try it out for a year, enrolling in September 1924.  The year stretched out to four, at the end of which I graduated in Commercial art under Mr. J. E. H. McDonald.

This was an interesting period as several of the teaching staff were members of the famed Group of Seven, namely Arthur Lismer, J. E. H. McDonald, Frederick H. Varley. Others were J. W. Beatty, Emanuel Hahn who taught sculpture, George A Reid who was the principal of the school then, Robert Holmes, noted for his paintings of Ontario wild flowers and others.

I had taken up Commercial Art with the idea of earning my living in that line, but at that time there were few openings for women and also the Great Depression come along about 1931.  I taught handicrafts (which I had learned while at Alma College) in Y.W.C.A. and Girl Guide camps in the summer and also for a short period at Alma College. When the Second war came on, there arose a demand for honour rolls for churches and schools and I did a great deal of lettering on forms supplied by the Government.  In the following years, I also did illuminated addresses and certificates for the City of St. Thomas, local organizations and individuals, where the careful training received under Mr. J. E. H. McDonald came in useful. Their were also several Books of remembrance executed.

In the meantime, I did some outdoor sketching in pencil and studied composition under Mrs. Lila Knowles at Alma College, using that medium.  I also studied lino cuts under Mr. Harry Tallman at Alma. This was about 1934. Because I was interested in black and white work, Mrs. Knowles suggested that etching might be a good medium for me to follow so in February, 1977 I went to Toronto and studied under Mr. Harry Wallace for a few weeks.

In 1939, I studied etching by correspondence under Mr. Harry Sternberg on the staff of the Art Student’s League in New York.  He proved to be an excellent teacher as I was also taught the rudiments of composition. Later, because of the war, there was a shortage of metal so I went back to lino cuts, working on my own, in my spare time.  I began to send work to the Society of Canadian Painter-Etchers and Engravers. On the strength of the linocuts I was accepted as a member in 1944. In 1945, I studied aquatint Etching under Mr. Sternberg again, Because I had a tendency to be rather “tight” in my work, he suggested doing studies in black and white wash in order to correct this.  This proved to be a turning point as I became interested in watercolour painting, and made my first attempts at outdoor painting in that medium while on a holiday in north Bay in August 1945.

In 1947, I had the opportunity to study for a week under Mr. Nicholas Hornyansky, noted for his very fine aquatint etchings.  He was a kindly, conscientious teacher, but his methods were the opposite of Mr. Sternberg and I found myself in difficulties.  However, I was becoming more and more interested in watercolours and finally dropped the printmaking line. I remained however as a member of the S.C.P.E.&E. Until 1958.

While the early training received during the four years at the O.C.A. was a great help, when I finally took up the watercolour medium in 1945, I leaned mostly from books on the subject in the local library and elsewhere, and sent painting to the Groups shows held each year also in the Library.

Early in 1966, my sister-in-law, Mrs. John F. Curtis had some interior decorating done in her home.  I was commissioned to do six small watercolours of local landmarks for her. They created much interest to friends who came to the house which in turn led to more commissions.

At the October meeting in 1966, The Women’s Art Association had a combined showing of Mrs. Lila Knowles’ and my paintings in the parlour of the Y.W.C.A.  In April 1969, the University Women’s Club had an art auction at the Memorial Arena with proceeds being used to form a nucleus of the work of Elgin County artists.  I put in the “Old Church in October” and several lino cuts as my contribution. Later, who paintings, the Cedarhurst house at 76 Talbot Street and the Amasa Wood Hospital were purchased for the permanent collection at the Art Gallery which was opened in 1970.  Several paintings were sent to the regional show held in the 20/20 Gallery in London, in December 1971. In April 1972, I won third prize for watercolour “Lilacs” at the Second Annual Juried Show at the local Art Gallery. I took part in a four man show in the local gallery in January 1973". ~ Carolyn Curtis 1979

Artist Statement

"I was born in Scotland and immigrated to Canada with my family when I was a child.  I spent half a century living in Toronto before moving to St. Thomas, the home town of my partner, Neil Hubert.  I think I started to paint as a exploration: what could I produce, and what would something I made look like?  I still paint for the mysteries, and also because of the pleasure it gives me.  Being self taught, my studio is like my won private school where I learn something every day through tips from friends, and trial and error.  When it's working and I'm in the moment, time flies and when I wake up sometimes there's a finished canvas on the easel.  If it isn't going great, time can stand still.  Either way, I just enjoy being in my studio, creating my won images in my own environment I like people to feel good when they look at my work and if one of my canvases make it's way to their home it becomes part of that person's daily life then hopefully they get to share in that moment when it all came together" ` Robin Grindley

Mary Intven Wallace, award winning artist, educator, and author, shares her love of the land, sea and sky in her contemporary paintings of the Canadian landscape. In her artwork, she shares her view of this wonderful world as a place of vibrant colour. Mary's landscapes brighten the walls of galleries across Canada, many private collections, and are also featured in her published books.

Mary began painting after her first magical trip to Algonquin Park more than a half century ago. Her enduring enthusiasm for Canada’s land continues to flourish, especially when she paints at her woodland studio in the Algonquin Highlands. Honouring the intrinsic balance and beauty of the natural world is a consistent theme in her work. The luminous colours in her paintings conjure connections to the dynamic energy of land, sea and sky.
Her vibrant artworks grace public and private collections around the world, winning awards such as the International White Raven Award and the National Outdoor Book Award. Mary is a longstanding Haliburton School of Art and Design faculty member. Recently, the YMCA of Western Ontario recognized Mary as a ‘Woman of Excellence in Arts, Culture & Education’ for her community contributions as artist. 

Born in Brantford, Ontario and now living in St. Thomas. Studied Advertising Art/Design Mohawk College, Hamilton. First full-time job was as a graphic artist and later Art Director for a design/print firm in Paris, Ontario. In London, Ontario, after putting in a stint as a writer/producer at CBC affiliate CFPL-TV, Dennis returned to painting. He later opened and operated a gallery from 1987 to 1992 that showcased paintings and sculpture of local and regional artists.

Kalichuk’s works are in hundreds of private and corporate collections, mostly in Canada but also many countries worldwide. He has participated in dozens of group and gallery shows in Canada and the U.S.

Dennis is a multi-media artist who tends to work in series. The artist’s current work includes a series of simplified and stylized landscapes called “Earth Tones”. Preferring to work from memory or field sketches, the elements in the scenes are depicted as simple, pure shapes.

The artist created a bold watercolour painting series that captured the sensation of movement of birds and animals in the “Metaphysical Fauna” series. “To accomplish this I use colours and abstracted backgrounds, merged with the subject, of what I imagine to be the aura of energy created by the moving bird or animal.” That series comprises over 200 paintings. He now uses that same technique to capture the energy and excitement of music and sports in his portrait series of original paintings.

Kalichuk’s work also includes semi-abstacted sculptures from Brazilian soapstone and art guitars. In 1998 he began a series of art bikes built from a collection of one-speed cruiser bicycles, mostly from the 30’s and 40’s.

The artist most recently branched out into original music and has written and recorded 4 studio albums as Jumbo Train.

Born in St. Thomas, Ontario, Ron Kingswood developed a strong interest in the outdoors as a young man hunting with his father. During his teenage years, he was enamored with the realistic paintings of Don Eckelberry whose work frequented the pages of Audubon magazine and with whom Kingswood would establish a mentor/student correspondence. It was on Eckelberry's recommendation that Kingswood sought formal training at H. B. Beal Secondary School in London, Ontario where he studied colour theory and composition. Around this time, Kingswood discovered the works of fellow Canadian Robert Bateman, the acknowledged dean of wildlife painting who would encourage Kingswood to pursue a fresh vision he could call his own. After achieving enormous success with photo realistic work, Kingswood was advised by Eckelberry to resist the tightly rendered highly illustrative approach. The result of finding his own vision is "a distinctly impressionistic style that is radically different from that of any other wildlife artist.  His mastery of colour, his visual composition, and highly original approach to his subjects are influencing the evolution of animal art." (Southwest Art, June 2001)  As art critic Todd Wilkinson notes, "Although Kingswood, who spends weeks each year in the field as a naturalist, pays homage to animals in his works, he considers his subject matter secondary to the flood of colour flowing off his palette in abstract streaks, rivulets and muted mosaics." Kingswood currently lives and works in Sparta, Ontario.

Born 1959, lives in Sparta, Ontario.

From her birthplace in Zim, Usborne, Ontario, Lila Knowles at the age of 20, went to Toronto and studied at Moulton College and with Farquhar McGillivray Knowles.  Dr. Dobson, then Principal of Alma College, viewed her work in Granto and immediately hired her to teach art in September, 1926. This appointment lasted 28 years, interrupted briefly when her husband of one year Farquhar McGillivray Knowles, died in 1932.  Thereafter, she spent summers sketching on the Atlantic Coast and at Colpy’s Bay near Owen Sound, exhibiting her work their in 1937. Other exhibitions have included : The Robert Simpson Company Ltd., Toronto (1944), Alma College (1946), The Little Gallery, Toronto (1951) and the Ontario Loan and Debenture Company, St. Thomas (1967).  When William St. Thomas Smith died in 1947, she purchased his home at 97 Stanley Street and lived their until 1971 when she entered a nursing home. Many area artists have benefited from Mrs. Knowles instruction, both professionally and privately. (From the files of the St. Thomas-Elgin Public Art Centre)

The following artworks are a few examples from the permanent collection.

Elizabeth is a self taught professional painter of over twenty years. She works exclusively in oil as she believes the colours and textures allows her to truly capture the complexity of light and dark.  She believes that to truly bring a painting to life, it has to capture the viewer's interest quickly and then draw them into the painting.

Patrick Landsley (1926-2022), was born in Winnipeg in 1926. He studied at the Winnipeg School of Art under Lionel Lemoine FitzGerald and Joseph Plaskett (1947-49)  and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts School of Art and Design (1950-51) before moving to Paris to study at the Academie Montmartre under Fernand Leger (1952) and at the Academie Ranson (1953). Patrick Landsley taught at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts's School of Art and Design from 1954-66 and at Concordia University's Faculty of Fine Art for almost 30 years (1966-95). His watercolours and mixed media works with oil on multiple levels of masonite are brilliantly coloured and have the appearance of relief collages.  His work is often inspired by the landscape of Greece - its ancient sites, villages, mountains, plains, valleys and sea - a consequence of his frequent trips over the past 15 years. Patrick Landsley lived in St. Thomas, Ontario.

The following is a selection from the permanent collection

Clark McDougall was born in St. Thomas in 1921. At the age of 16 Clark left high school determined to become an artist. He would ride his bike north of St. Thomas into North Yarmouth and paint watercolours directly from nature. He taught himself proper technique from library books and sought advice from local artist William St. Thomas Smith. In 1950, at the age of 29, Clark traveled to Montreal and Quebec City where he first experienced the paintings of Henri Matisse. He now realized that colour and line could be used in a completely different way. By 1952-3 Clark was working as a “Fauve” painter, where his colours were intensely vivid and non-naturalistic.

A coronary in 1957 forced Clark to paint from photographs in his studio. His painting style changed where the outline became very important to the structure and design of the painting. Clark’s unique “black enamel” style set him apart from other regional artists. His first exhibition of these "black enamel" paintings was in 1968 at the 20/20 Gallery, London. In 1976 the Volunteer Committee at the London Regional Art Gallery commissioned a painting, “Site”, to commemorate the building of the new gallery. In 1977 the Vancouver Art Gallery organized an exhibition “Clark McDougall: Paintings since 1953”.

Regardless of the style, however, Clark had a highly individual way of interpreting his beloved landscape of North Yarmouth. Clark McDougall passed away of a brain tumor in 1980 at the age of 59.

Below you will find selections from Clark McDougall's work from the collection.  We have divided the selections into categories. Drawings, Barns and Rural, Landscapes, Cityscapes and Portrait/other.
