A virtual tour of Rob's recent Art Show at the Dart Gallery located in Dartmouth, NS
Learn about his approach to art, his process and the inspiration behind his one-of-a-kind art works.
This is one of my favorites pieces and one that started me down the path to what I've been calling, "Digital Mixed Media Art", an approach where by I mix and manipulate digital versions of my original paintings, drawings and photographs onto a digital canvas creating one-of-a-kind original prints.
Nautical, whimsical, both, neither. With it's colorful oranges and yellows set on a geometric palette of blues, this piece takes us away to a different time.
The first in a series of 4 pieces that explores colours, shapes, moods and textures you would find in a tropical rain forest.
They put a smile on my face, what do you think?

Created during the first few weeks of the Covid-19 pandemic, “That’s F%#king Messed Up” depicts elements of how some of us were feeling; fear of the unknown and especially the helplessness we all felt as it all played out in front of us on the world stage. It's also the first in a series of three titled "Messed Up" that explores this new devestating reality we are living.
The 2nd in the "Messed Up" Series exploring the pandemic and its devestation to our friends and family.
The 3rd in the "Messed Up" Series exploring the pandemic and it's introduction and devestation to our way of life.
The cooling of a winter moon
The first in a series of three. I've always had this fascination with crows and ravens so this series was an exploration into colors and moods and what sort of tensions I could create.
