Painting Discourse is BACK! This week I discuss an article in Palladium magazine about the current state of Canada and it’s ruling elites, it got me thinking about a recent trip I made to a place in Niagara Falls to do a plein air painting study (I have some footage in a recent short) and what my purpose as an artist is in a changing cultural and sociopolitical epoch. Also m frustrations with the political hot take economy. Enjoy, don’t forget to like, share, sub and leave a comment.
