About the Item

Toronto artist Lynne Fernie prefers working in black and white. She enjoys the pure pleasure of drawing, the first art form she began to work in. Drawing 1 & 2, two panels of jet black with detailed white markings, are part of an intriguing series she created in ink, latex and acrylic. “I think I might be a bit like a writer who faces a blank page. You know you have an idea… What happens when I put the first line on is how the drawing progresses. It’s more like a kind of visual intellect.” Lynne Fernie Lynne Fernie is an OCAD honours graduate and award-winning documentary filmmaker. Fernie has been the recipient of arts and film grants from the Canada Council, the Ontario Arts Council and the Toronto Arts Council, and has been a jury member of Canada Council and Ontario Arts Council juries.

Off the Leash - black & white, minimalist, figurative abstract, ink on paper
By Lynne Fernie
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Three black brushstrokes representing ground and rapid dashes of black, drizzled and brushed form the profile of a dog, his leash flying upwards in this work on paper.

Framed size is 50 x 36 inches. Lynne Fernie is a Toronto artist...

Citation - black, white, abstracted figurative, brushed ink on paper
By Andrew Lui
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Brushed ink in grey and black leads the eye up the picture plane in this 55-inch tall painting on paper. The intense movement suggestive of rearing horses in this painterly work is in keeping with Lui's theme of pilgrimage in which he explores the idea of "self-inflicted happiness" as a deliberate response to the melancholy and complexity of life. This painting is floated and framed. Framed Size: 60 × 35 inches Born in Guangzhou, China, Lui participated in the Chinese Cultural Revolution as a member of the Red Guard 1968-70 and then escaped to Hong Kong by swimming. Making his way to Toronto he studied at the Ontario College of Art and became a citizen in the late 1970s. He continued studies in the UK, and Italy where he was drawn to the dynamic Uccello's Battle of San Romano...
