I work three days a week for the North York Public Library Board: one day at the Central Library’s Literature and Fine Arts Department, and two at the York Woods Library, a regional branch with high immigrant use. As a part-time librarian and as an artist focussing on the more traditional aspects of art, drawing and painting, I usually leave library thoughts at the library door. If anything, it’s the patrons themselves who have inspired my art. However, the Fine Arts collection at the Central Library provides me with resource materials to observe and connect what artists in the past have done to what I seek to do now.
