Overview

This exhibition features selections from the artist’s Raffi’s Toronto series, originally published as a feature by the Toronto Star. These highly accomplished plein air paintings document famous GTA landmarks, capturing a variety of seasons and times of day. Raffi’s original plein air sketches are shown alongside larger canvasses that the artist completed in his studio to further refine the compositions and explore their creative potential.
