Artist Hugh Niblock has been
drawing and painting since
early Childhood.
|
|
While a philosophy undergraduate at
University of Toronto, he was the
cartoonist for The Varsity, the daily
university paper.
|
|
|
Upon graduation, he was commissioned
to paint an extensive mural of university
life in Hart House. This led to a scholarship
to study art in England.
|
|
He then taught art in England and Canada while devoting his spare time to his painting.
|
|
|
Since 1988 he has become a full time artist and partner in Galerie Gale in Midland.
|
|
He has pursued many avenues of expression from bold oil abstracts and veiled acrylic colourfield paintings to his more recent flowing watercolours.
|
|
|
Most of his current works are Georgian Bay landscapes, usually with human activity in the form of boating, skiing and golfing.
