I'm participating in the show Synthesis again this year! The shows process involved two waves of artists; the first was to create a work based on a theme chosen by the Queen West Art Crawl and the second wave was to create a work strictly based on one of the pieces that was chosen for them in the first wave. I was in the second wave and I had a choreographed dance to make a painting from.
I've attached the brochure if anyone's interested in coming. Enjoy!

I was fortunate enough to be chosen to be on Bravo's show Star Portraits. I painted Sean Cullen and my episode airs this weekend! The show is on Bravo at 8pm on Saturday the 27th. If you miss it, you can check it out on the Bravo website for a few weeks afterwards.
Heyo, I'm in a show at the Telephone Booth Gallery on Dundas. The show starts on December 1st and runs until January 8th. The opening night is on the 9th from 6-9pm.
My first foray into larger landscapes. Sizes from the top down in inches; 8x16, 16x20, 18x24. Also, my apologies for the poor image quality. They're unvarnished and they look better in person.
Matthew Tarini is a young realist painter living in Toronto. He was trained initially in the traditional academic method and has found it invaluable as a foundation for creating realist works. He is now exploring different ways of expressing himself with paint. Recently he has been referring to the works of other artists he admires for inspiration, ideas and new techniques. Matthew is particularly interested in portraiture and is actively building a body of work in this genre.
