Casual Impressionism: I found there is nothing more challenging or interesting than the faces of those around me. My drawings are made on the spot, quickly and spontaneously - my subjects are unposed and initially unaware that I am committing my impression of them to newsprint. If my sketch has made it home to your fridge-thank you! Contact knightonart@gmail.com

Friday evening was spent walking on Spadina. The weather was superb and I stopped at the Red.Tavern.
I completed a number of sketches of the patrons and was even invited to a few tables. Most patrons were surprised and appreciative to receive my casual impression -- it often lead to conversations and from my point of view is now part of the drawing.
The table nearest me was occupied by a 4 young women of a all female band Mad June. They were from Montreal and in Toronto performing at the Hideout and on a recording gig in Toronto.
Welcome ! 2 of the group members had colourful bold arm tattoos that were truly original works of art in of themselves.
If u just happen to check into this web site send me info say hello and I will post a link.
I also met Trev Murphy
who renders exceptional portraits and sketch cards with copic markers...I emailed him and he replied.
