Blair Paul“I am a walking recording device, constantly seeing, sensing, feeling what goes on around me.”    Blair Paul, 2009
Almonte artist Blair Paul is constantly On the Edge of Discovery.  His sensitive and perceptive artistic observations will be featured in a brilliant display of his work at Ottawa’s Cube Gallery, 7 Hamilton Ave. North, from Jan. 6-31, 2010.

This show, On The Edge of Discovery, will showcase Blair Paul’s “remarkable versatility which ranges from realism to minimalism, from landscape to abstraction,” according to Lillian  Michiko Blakey, president of the Ontario Society of Artists. “He has amazing technical expertise and skill in a variety of media, all of which captivate the viewer – the stark geometric contrasts in his drawings, the conceptual messages in his abstract paintings and the lush textures in his landscapes.”

Blair will also be launching his book, On the Edge of Discovery, at the Jan. 6 opening of his show at the Cube.  Collected Works will be selling books at the event.  Doors open at 7pm.
Blair has worked as both a professional fine artist and art educator at a number of prestigious institutions and designed and coordinated the Introduction to Fine Art Program at Algonquin College. He has had numerous exhibitions in Canada and abroad. His work is now held in many private and corporate collections world-wide.

On the Edge of Discovery opens at the Cube Gallery, 7 Hamilton Ave. N., on Jan. 6 and runs until Jan. 31.
