Rob (who HATES writing in 3rd person) is a full-time PROFESSIONAL artist who is in the midst of a great comeback story! In 2018, he survived a devastating studio fire that destroyed everything!
2020 marks Rob's 16th FULL TIME year as a working artist! (Which is kinda like 30 years in regular-person-career years!) In that 16 years, he has completed about 1650 works of art! (BOO YA!) Rob has shown in over 160 juried & solo exhibitions and has participated in The Toronto International Art Fair, The Artist Project, The Winter One of a Kind Show and numerous art-trade shows! In the last year alone, he exhibited in Toronto, Caledon, Cleveland, California, Chicago (**all the big 'c' places!) Rob is currently represented in a few Ontario galleries, and in a few USA galleries as well.
Rob is thrilled to have his art in the permanent City of Toronto’s Art Collection, and in the private collections of several Mayors, Alex Lifeson, Stuart McLean & Ann Marie MacDonald. You will find his art and his commissions in many private collections all over the world from Istanbul to California.
Rob has been profiled in Argyle Magazine, Neighborhood Living Magazine, The Society for Commercial Archeology, Spacing Magazine and many others. He has featured by The Jealous Curator (which is kinda a big deal for him!)and recently on a neon podcast! In addition to all that, you can also find Rob’s merchandise at several Ontario retailers.
Rob's acrylic paintings are intentionally upbeat and humourous. His vintage-inspired work is instantly identifiable! It has a clever approach to pop culture that often merges political topics within whimsical compositions. They're great...and he's pretty great too!
