His vibrant paintings reflect both his knowledge of traditional Aboriginal mythology and his personal struggles with addictions and homelessness. His paintings are a testament to the human spirit's ability to transcend the realities of the human condition. Tom has been living in the Managed Alcohol Program at the Shepherds of Good Hope for the last 4 years. He paints in the style developed by Norval Morrisseau. Go to www.tomhogan.ca to see his work and learn more about Tom. Who better to host an exhibit of Tom's work than St. Brigid's Centre for the Arts? The very first Shepherd's of Good Hope soup kitchen began in this same space over 25 years ago. Come to this exhibit to see his work, meet Tom and watch him paint his next piece.
