Charles Funnell

Chris Montgomery
My goal is to continually challenge my design, technical and artistic ability by stretching the boundaries of my medium and thereby simply bring beauty into your life, so that you can live with it and so enhance your life. The Glasshopper Studio specializes in commissions, custom work and restorations.
Christine Benson
Christine is a graduate of OCAD and is the co-owner of Journey Through the Arts, a multi-faceted art school. Christine carves detailed nature inspired linocuts and prints them on delicate Japanese paper, wood and fabric which allows her to challenge the traditional boundaries of relief printmaking in a fresh and exciting way.
Christine Collie Rowland
Christine, a lifelong artist, former rock’n’roll photographer and illustrator, paints original narrative paintings that contain mystery and tell a story. Quirky unique contemporary art – plus moody and colorful abstracts.
Denice Bustraen
I believe that art has the power to heal, inspire and transform. I try to create colourful landscapes that resonate with viewers on a deeper level. Because I spent the majority of my life in remote Moosonee, hints of my First Nation heritage can be found in each of my pieces.
Gillian Smith-Clark
Each image I create is a visual poem, the translation of a moment. Realism that evokes emotion and skirts the edges of abstraction is what I strive for in my work.
Ingrid Anderson
Jane Robertson
Jane is an award-winning oil painter creating luminous landscapes inspired by the Canadian countryside and beyond. Enjoy the beauty of the Northumberland Hills and Rice Lake while you take in these quietly inspiring paintings.
Janice Snider
Much of my inspiration is drawn from nature. My fibre art and felt making is a very tactile medium where I employ the use of merino wool, silks and stitching. I sometimes incorporate wood, paper and natural inks to my felted landscapes, vessels and lamps.
Kathryn McHolm
My paintings and drawings express themes within the garden and local landscapes and architecture.
Ken Solilo
Part of my inspiration is how the light and colours transform a landscape. An image I see through the viewfinder and captured with my camera can be shared with others to replicate a feeling.
Loretta Kaltenhauser
of colours.
Margaret MacGillivray
To me art reflects the world that surrounds us, revealing its layers, vibrancy and profound moments. Working mostly in acrylic and mixed media, and occasionally watercolour. Each piece unfolds organically as I follow the inspiration to completion. I use many tools including those found in nature.
Martina Munroe
Martina Munroe is a multimedia textile artist in Port Hope, Ontario. Her works combine rug hooking, knitting, applique, embroidery, and beading. She won the Juror’s Award in 2022 from AGN in Cobourg.
Melanie Brown
My work is an exploration of colour, form and light in representational painting, lately on an intimate scale, reflecting the beautiful intimacy that occurs in the process of painting itself.
Mike Efford
I create paintings and mixed media sculpture in acrylics. My work, whether it be landscape, abstract painting or mixed media sculpture, references my fascination for the interplay between chaos and order, geometric and organic form, in the world around us.
Pamela Tate
If you want to see a variety of art in a warm and welcoming setting, come on over to The Tate Gallery. Art of different sizes and subjects ensures that you will enjoy your visit.
Rita Naras
Rita’s realistic and highly detailed drawings, depict nature and animal subjects, in graphite, coloured pencil, and oil pastel.
Rosemary Hill

Stephen Snider
Vlasta Van Kampen
For 40 years I worked as an Author/Illustrator for 38 children’s books and have won many prestigious awards over the years. Other projects were paintings for Parks Canada and a Commemorative Stamp for Canada Post.
William Les Robling
Les catches the essence of the view with a discerning eye for the subject, precise brush work, knife work, bold colours, some detail and a hint of impressionism. His work epitomizes his love for his medium, an imaginative treatment, effective colour relationships, bold lines and an expressive feel.
