Spring is here and so is my course information, now revised and updated! Gallery Walk & Talk
SATURDAY, APRIL 18 somewhere in central Toronto
Gallery Walk & Talks are a fun and stimulating way to spend a day (11 to 4) or half day (1 to 4) visiting a selection of contemporary art galleries in Toronto, led by me and ably assisted by Kal Honey, also an artist and instructor. We take a coffee break (& lunch when appropriate) somewhere in the area – that's part of the fun!
Toronto has numerous interesting neighbourhoods known for cutting edge contemporary art galleries and I select the destinations for each walk based on my research on what's showing. I aim for variety, interest and some challenge of course.
Occasionally we've visited a studio or had the artist in person to talk about their work. As well I provide what background and context I can as well as answer questions.
The April walk will be a half day (1 to 4:00 or 4:30pm), with destination to be determined 10 days to 2 weeks ahead of time. Cost: $30. Contact me if you're interested in joining me for this one. Numbers are limited and payment reserves your spot.
Courses & Workshops
THURSDAYS (8 weeks: April 2 through May 21; 9:30–12:30 or 1:00–4:00)
Neilson Park Creative Centre
Figurative Art with Kim Lee Kho
Each term we approach drawing (as well as some other media) from the life model in a variety of ways, building a combination of technical and creative skills, tackling both the “how” and the “why” of working with the human figure.

WEEKEND WORKSHOP (May 23 & 24, 10:00–4:00)
Visual Arts Mississauga
Photo-Based Mixed Media
My first workshop at Visual Arts Mississauga went really well with a mixture of familiar students and
new ones. The most common request was for more time! So this spring you can devote a whole weekend (6 hours a day) to learning and working, whether you are new to photo-based mixed media or a returning student. Some examples from 20th century and contemporary art will be presented for those who are interested.
