WELCOME TO THE 2020 LONDON ARTISTS’ STUDIO TOUR!
Now in its 27th year, the London Artists’ Studio Tour has a
proud history of opening the doors of London studios to the
public.
This year, 32 artists will display drawing, painting, pottery,
printmaking, sculpture, and textiles in approaches ranging from
traditional to experimental. Media encompasses acrylic, oil,
watercolour, found object assemblage, metal, wood, clay, paper,
silk and more.
The London Artists’ Studio Tour is organized by a small group of
professional artists – Sarah Cowling, Carol Finkbeiner Thomas,
Corrine Garlick, Beth Stewart and Richard Sturgeon. Each year, this
core group selects a dozen or more additional participants through
a jurying process that looks for quality art by practicing artists
who show a dedication to perfecting their craft and have a studio
able to accommodate tour traffi c.
We strive to keep the Tour fresh and exciting and fi ve of this
year’s artists are new to the Tour. We also embrace the element of
surprise; watch for pop-up demonstrations and special guest
artists.
Back after an enthusiastic reception last year is the Studio
Tour Passport, a scavenger hunt that encourages Tour-goers to
collect artist signatures in exchange for a ballot entry into a
draw for work by tour artists.
The Tour is as much about the process of creating art as it is
about the art works themselves. Browsers are welcome. Artists are
present in their studios for the duration of the Tour and are happy
to explain their craft and answer questions.
This is a self-guided tour and is free of charge. Friday, April
24th is opening night. Between the hours of 7 and 9:30 p.m.,
Tour-goers are treated to refreshments and fi rst choice of the
artists’ works.
Studios remain open Saturday, April 25th from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
and Sunday, April 26th from noon to 5 p.m.

Paul Abeleira1786 Attawandaron Rd., Unit 33, N6G 3N1519
[email protected]#18 on the map
Paul Abeleira is a representational oil painter who embraces the
classical tradi-tion. Having studied under many instruc-tors at
academies in the United States, he applies a number of skillful
approaches to achieve the effects he is after.
Even though his subjects range from stormy landscapes to
exhausted nudes, he is known mostly for his food-inspired still
life. This comes from his training and long career in the
culinary arts. No matter the subject, he tries to capture in paint
the simplicity of everyday in the most appealing way possible.
Aside from painting, Paul also practices life drawing on a weekly
basis, turning out dozens of charcoal fi gure studies per month. He
is excited to share his gallery of all he has created since he last
participated in the Tour.
Chris Allaway40 Wellesley Cres., N5V 1J6226
[email protected]/fabricatedart#2 on the
map
Chris Allaway’s work has the illusion of paint. It is only upon
close inspection a viewer realizes the dimensional look is entirely
created with fabric. Her art is constructed with many small pieces
of
fabric that have been painstakingly cut and layered to achieve
the impression of painted nature.
Chris is fascinated with the texture and colour of the rocks in
and around the areas of Georgian Bay and Muskoka and the beauty of
the trees. She shares this love of nature in her art. She is
self-taught and her work is forever evolving. Join Chris in her
home studio to view a variety of pieces as well as the many stages
of her work in progress.

www.gregbenz.comInstagram: @gregbenz_artwork#10 on the map
Greg Benz’ new outdoor studio is fi nished and he invites you to
visit both it and his home. Greg’s creative journey through visual
art and music has given him a broad palette
from which to create bold pieces on canvas and wood-panel.
His current artwork is simply the next chapter in his artistic
career. Utilizing non-traditional painting techniques, his large
Canadian-based landscapes feature an authoritative use of colour
and texture. His acclaimed work in resin is explosive, with a
mash-up of colours and patterns that gives the impression of
violent creation in deep space. Since graduating from London’s
Bealart, Greg has also had a rich career as a DJ and producer of
electronica. This has allowed him to travel and be a player in a
wide range of creative endeavors.
Kevin Bice2 Leslie St., N6H 1H9519 438-4217
[email protected]#15 on the map
Over 50 years of making art, Kevin Bice has explored a variety
of fi elds, approaches and media. Although this year’s work is
primarily oil on canvas, visitors will also fi nd works in
watercolour as well as drawing in ink and charcoal. Also on view
are stage designs and
props from theatres in London and Sault Ste. Marie. In all
areas, he continues to be fascinated by two things – the evocative
power of light and the unique, expressive character of the creative
medium.
This year, Kevin is presenting works done in the studio and
outdoors in Ontario, British Columbia and Italy. In all of his
work, Kevin acknowledges the tremendous infl uence that his father,
Clare Bice, has had on his technique and his attitude towards
making art.

@moiraburkeart#4 on the map
Feel the soft air of a rainy day, the breeze blowing as waves
break on the shore or the quiet of a northern lake. Moira Burke is
drawn to subjects that trigger an emotion, a sense of place or a
memory. Working from plein air studies, sketches and other
references,
her goal is to capture the atmosphere of a moment. Visitors will
see how Moira explores the same subject through different
possibilities of colour, tone, medium and approach. Water – the
sea, lakes, marshes and rivers – is a constant inspiration.
Primarily an oil painter, her new works include a series of smaller
pieces using palette knife to create loosely rendered textural
work. Moira shares a large and light-fi lled studio with fellow
Studio Tour artists, Catherine Eichstedt and Ingrid Connidis.

Shirley Clement2 Carrothers Ave. N6H 1J5519
[email protected] www.onlyconnect.ca#14 on the
map
Shirley makes vibrantly coloured, textured pillows that have
become treasured accents in the homes and cottages of many
Londoners. She weaves the covers on a 45” Dutch countermarch fl oor
loom in her home studio beside the river in historic
Blackfriars. Shirley works from an attic full of wool, silk,
llama, alpaca and camel that come from all over the world - some
hand spun and hand dyed - and she has many new colours this year
from which to choose.
Her pillows come in two sizes – 18 by 25 inches and 18 by 18
inches – and the covers have zippers for easy hand washing. Each
pillow takes about 10 hours to craft and they make wonderful
wedding presents for those couples who have everything! Gift
certifi cates are also available.
Ingrid Arnet ConnidisStudio III, Unit 210, 538 Adelaide St. N.
N6B 2J4519 [email protected]
www.ingridconnidis.comfacebook.com/Studio3artists#5 on the map
Ingrid Arnet Connidis enjoys painting indoors and out and is
especially drawn by colour. Old homes, trees, local and
international landscapes, animals and crows have all been featured
in her work. Ingrid usually paints with oils or acrylics, inspired
by real life, pencil and charcoal sketches,
photos and her imagination. Her paintings refl ect the
contentment of being in natural settings and of sharing the stories
that her subjects have to tell. Ingrid’s recent work includes a
series on trees that refl ects her respect for the many ways that
they sustain us and enrich our lives.
Another current series portrays strangers discovered in old
photos who feel familiar through shared time and experience. Ingrid
works at Studio III in Old East Village, along with Moira Burke and
Catherine Eichstedt.

Sarah Cowling180 Timber Dr., N6K 4B2519
[email protected] sarahcowling.weebly.com#24 on the
map
Sarah Cowling creates collage art with paint, paper ephemera and
found objects. Sometimes she uses buttons, material and needlework.
Raw materials are sourced from her stash, garage sales, the
internet
and anonymous offerings from friends. Part of her art process
consists of hand painting paper or tissue to create necessary
colours or textures. Sarah’s art work is a form of story telling,
whether the pieces represent fantasy, birds, fashion or landscape
as subject matter. Sarah will demonstrate her techniques during the
Tour. She is happy to answer questions about her process, as well
as the materials and products used in creating collage.
For this year’s Tour, Sarah will explore new themes and display
some old favourites. Be sure to visit Sarah’s studio for an
eclectic art experience!

Susan Day580 Quebec St., N5W 3Z2519 [email protected]
www.susandayceramics.comInstagram: @susandayceramics#3 on the

Susan Day is an established visual artist whose ceramic work has
successfully strad-dled the worlds of contemporary craft and fi ne
art. Susan has a long exhibiting history and her works have been
included in various important national and international exhibits,
including The Embassy Cultural House, La Chambre Blanche (Quebec
City), DIA Art Foundation (NYC) and the Banff Centre (Banff, AB).
Most recently Susan has turned
her focus to larger-scale public works. She has been the lead
artist with all seven of the Old East Village handmade tile mosaics
and is currently working on large-scale public art works with both
the MacIntosh Gallery, Western University and the new London
Children’s Museum. For the Tour, Susan will be showing tile works,
hand built vessels, furniture and limited edition dinnerware.
Brian Dirks24 Bathurst St., N6B 1N7519
[email protected]#28 on the map
Beside a train track near the river in an old building settled
and secure, you’ll fi nd the bdirks studio. It’s a rough space that
contains a complex of tools and materials. Brian Dirks paints in
oils and acrylics on stretched linen canvas and also works in egg
tempera, encaustic and ink on paper and wood. Brian paints neither
intending to have his pieces fi t into some other narrative nor
with the certainty that all his efforts will succeed. Nonetheless,
he chooses fi ne materials and best practices to pay due respect to
time spent with familiar subjects.
In consequence, older passed-over pieces survive to inform the
more recent. Confi dence in the integrity of material underpins the
liberty and freedom painting provides. There is comfort in the
wellbeing of old friends.

artsyfartsycath.cafacebook.com/Studio3artists/#6 on the map
Catherine Eichstedt is positively excited about her second year
as part of the London Artists’ Studio Tour. The past year has
brought wonderful opportunities to expand her painting experience
and subject matter. She continues to use a free, loose, bold style,
but has added more abstraction to her repertoire. She predominantly
paints on large canvases to immediately attract the viewer to her
narrative. Catherine has been drawing and painting from childhood.
She studied at U. of T., majoring in Fine Arts Studio. She has also
studied at the Haliburton School of the Arts with several
recognized Canadian Artists. She has won awards for her work in
Toronto and London. She has happily shared a studio for four years
with fellow artists, Moira Burke and Ingrid Connidis.

[email protected] www.carolfi nkbeinerthomas.com#23 on
the map
Carol Finkbeiner Thomas is primarily an oil painter whose
subjects include landscapes and fl orals. Colour, texture and mood
play important roles in her works which have been described as
intuitive, evocative and deeply atmospheric. Paintings begin with a
loose freehand drawing, and progress to the building up of the
surface using brushes, palette knives and a variety of traditional
and non-traditional methods.
Carol was born in London, Ontario and raised north of Toronto.
She returned to London after receiving her Honours Bachelor Degree
of Fine Arts at York University. She enjoys working in a variety of
media including drawing, printmaking and pottery.
Corinne Garlick511 St. James St., N5Y 3P4519
[email protected]#8 on the
map
Step into Corinne Garlick’s studio and you’re likely to see
street scenes of London and landscapes of southern Ontario.
Executed in brilliant colour, her paintings are imaginative,
expressive and full of the vitality that she sees around her. She
is a graduate of Bealart and Nova Scotia College of Art and Design,
and has been making a living from her art for the last 20
years.
Corinne’s outdoor adventures in local parks and natural settings
provide inspiration for her large landscape paintings that feature
the beauty of southern Ontario. Done primarily in oil on canvas,
her paintings exude character and life. It is a unique studio
experience that you won’t want to miss! Corinne is one of the
organizers of the London Artists’ Studio Tour.

Sue Garrington14 Monmore Rd., N6G 2W6519
[email protected]#21 on the
map
A stop at Susan Garrington’s studio allows visitors to examine
her sketchbooks, landscapes and fl oral explorations and to see how
they are produced. Her paintings reveal the amazing diversity of
life and beauty at the edges of fi elds, fence lines, parking lots
and forgotten corners of her garden. Sketching sojourns in Killbear
Park have allowed her to produce dramatic light fi lled
explorations of the Georgian Bay landscape. The strength and
vibrancy of Susan’s colour combinations result in fresh,
joyful,
uplifting watercolours which show a creative imagination at
play. Visitors will witness a creative imagination at play in
abandoned, neglected, forgotten and ignored ordinary places.

Bijan GhalehpardazBijan’s Art Studio: 673 Richmond St., N6A
5M1519 [email protected]@gmail.com#11
on the map
Bijan’s work is composed of two distinctive techniques and
methods of painting. One method is a new approach to visual art in
using several layers of art resin and acrylic paint. This is a
super intense and time-consuming technique that is rewarding as it
results in a three-dimensional realistic painting.
The next technique is the continuation of his unique acrylic
paint carving. Bijan applies up to 70 layers of thick high-quality
acrylic paint on a hard wooden surface. This process might take up
to six months. When all the layers are bone dry, he carves into
them using a Dremel power tool. This reductionist approach results
in a one of a kind and fascinating three dimensional painting.
Marlies Gueth60 Bloomfi eld Dr., N6G 1P3519
[email protected]#17 on the map
Marlies Gueth makes ceramic pieces, both functional and
sculptural. Clay provides her with the perfect medium in which to
explore her interest in texture and form. Every piece is built by
hand, using a variety of techniques, but slab building is her
favourite method. She impresses rolled out clay with a variety
of materials, such as plants, found objects, textiles and stamps
that she creates. Colours are applied in many layers, using glazes,
stains and underglazes, to give life and depth to her
creations.
Marlies often “follows the clay,” and is excited about where it
might lead her. Marlies is adventurous and inventive. Her pieces
exude whimsy and make people smile. With humour and playful
intelligence, she invites you to share her delight in the
unexpected.

Jen Hamilton19 Rockingham Ct., N6C 4L7519
[email protected]#31 on the
map
Jen Hamilton is a printmaker, painter and house maker. Her work
explores themes of motherhood, homemaking and domestic structures
using a critical lens. These paintings, sculptures and prints are
her response to entering motherhood while balancing a career within
the arts.
Her “Domestic Postpartum” installation is a series of over 2000
tiny houses built using a repurposed archive of past
two-dimensional artwork. With this work, Jen visually challenges
the difference between loss and change, shifts in plans, loneliness
and overcrowding. She explores what it means to be an artist,
feminist and mother, and the pre-constructed roles that are given
to each. Work displayed on a 30-foot print wall in Jen’s studio
will include screen prints, etchings and relief prints. Jen will
offer printing demonstrations throughout the weekend.

Jamie M K Jardine212 Edgehill Cres., N6G 2T8519
[email protected]#20 on the
map
Jamie has been painting and exhibiting his work in London and
surrounding areas for 20 years. He has worked mainly on landscapes
but more recently has made a shift to abstraction and minimalism.
This change is primarily in response to a long career as a
landscape painter and the effect the gallery system has had on
him.
This year Jamie has been concentrating on process and materials
rather than traditional methods. His new work is quite removed from
his previous and expresses a range of emotions, from joy and
calmness to anger and frustration. This year also marks the fi rst
public exhibition for Jamie and as a result, you will have the fi
rst glimpse of this new body of work.
Kim Kaitell34 Elmwood Ave. E., N6C 1J3519
[email protected]#27 on the
map
Kim Kaitell grew up in Northwestern Ontario, deeply infl uenced
by the forests and lakes of the Canadian Shield. She had the
privilege of spending each summer on Blindfold Lake, an area well
known for petroglyphs left behind by the Ojibway people. Her
fascination with symbolism and texture began here.
Kim’s formal education includes time at the Alberta University
of Art and Mount Royal University and at Atelier Bleu Vert in
Bordeaux, France. Surrounded by rich European culture and history,
she cultivated a deep interest in symbolism in religious art. Kim
works with plaster, elements of mixed media such as linen, burlap,
collage and encaustic wax. She hears the call of the crows every
morning and visitors will fi nd they show up in her paintings,
along with ravens, semi-abstract skyscapes and landscapes.

Peter Karas has been a full-time professional artist for the
past twenty years, after attaining a degree in Visual Arts from the
University of Victoria. He paints street scenes and landscapes in a
bold, refreshing style, with a focus on brilliant harmonious colour
and strong graphic compositions.
His inspiration comes from many sources – from the old
neighborhoods of London and heritage houses, to children’s books
and animated fi lms. Working primarily in oil and watercolour, he
typically paints on canvas, but he also has an interest in
woodworking, carving and joinery – some of his paintings
incorporate low relief carving or hand built gilded wood frames

symbolic imagery. Expect to see her renderings captured in oils,
water colours, chalk pastel, charcoal and graphite. Lovers of
nature and of human nature are drawn to her work for her subtle
mastery of light, colour, values, composition and attention to
detail.

Catherine Morrisey105 Clarence St., N6B 2J3519
[email protected]#29 on the map
The woods and river beside Catherine Morrisey’s studio provide
inspiration for her landscape paintings in oil. Her studio is in an
old auto body shop, a prizewinning conversion of industrial space
to a new purpose. The original room for painting cars opens east to
west, allowing breezes to fl ow through and clear the fumes. Now
birds and butterfl ies fl y in one door from the woods and out the
other side to the garden.
Catherine paints specifi c trees and views of the river, their
shapes and refl ections as she sees them from her kayak. A quick
sketch is later worked up on a large canvas in loose strokes.
Chinese landscape paintings, Group of Seven and French Post
Impressionists provide inspiration for colour, brushwork and
composition.

[email protected] www.briannormandeau.com#22
on the map
Brian Normandeau is as a contemporary artist whose paintings
refl ect today’s society and are painted for aesthetic and visual
pur-poses. His work is not dictated by style but by the colours,
textures and the processes required to capture the beauty even from
the most mundane subjects. His inspirations come from many sources,
family, life and nature, which challenge him to bring the
subject to life in a way that provokes emotion, memory or
thoughts in the viewer.
Painting is Brian’s way of sharing his excitement for what he
sees and experiences. He views painting as a way to challenge and
motivate himself to interpret what he sees and what he can do. It
is about searching for something that inspires him and then
challenges him to create and share it.

Noel SargentCottage Pottery Studio: 253 Hyman St., N6A

on the map
Noel has been an exhibiting artist for over 30 years. He’s
created and exhibited ceramic work in both Canada and the USA.
Concurrently, he was an exhibiting painter, a production
designer/prop master on fi ve feature fi lms and a photographer of
surfi ng and roller derby.
Noel’s ceramic work is an investigation of form, colour, surface
and function. He explores the contrast between the immediacy of
clay, classical forms and tedious surface decoration. Most of his
work is functional pottery. He believes that putting his art onto
functional pottery means the viewer has to interact with his ideas
and concepts. This creates a defi nite connection between maker and
user. Noel always considers the end-user holding or using his fi
nished pieces.

Lisa Stead185 High Street, N6C
[email protected] www.lisasteadart.com#30 on the
map
Lisa Stead is an abstract artist located in the beautiful
neighbourhood of Old South in London. As a student she studied fi
ne art, graphic design and photography. This is seen in her use of
shape, colour and tone. She paints in an expressionistic style;
however, expressing herself through abstraction is her fi rst love.
It allows an unrestricted approach, relinquishing control
to the tools so energy leads the way intuitively. Her works are
described as explorations of bold colour, defi ned line and shape
with emphasis on use of space. She works primarily with acrylics
and loves the use of texture to achieve detail. Each painting is
complete when harmony and balance are found in the chaos. Tour
visitors are invited to Lisa’s new studio to participate in
creating a community piece.

Beth works in coloured pencil or graphite. She is best known for
her birds but also draws other small critters as well as objects
she collects. Beth is a backyard birder. She is fascinated by their
antics, tenacity and beauty. She captures them in coloured pencil,
a labour intensive and unforgiving medium, which she enjoys for its
controllability and versatility. Beth is a graduate of the
University of Windsor Fine Arts program. She has lived in London
since 1977. She is a member of the
Coloured Pencil Society of America and the Pencil Art Society.
Beth teaches secondary school for the Thames Valley District School
Board. Off tour, Beth’s work can be seen at the Shop at Museum
London and during the May 29 to June 8 London Fringe Festival.

Richard Sturgeon - Metal In Fusion630 ½ Lorne Ave., N6B 3J4519
[email protected]#7 on the map
Flowing lines, motion and balance defi ne form and space in the
sculpture of Richard Sturgeon, exploring symbiotic connections,
meditations and existential refl ections. Miniatures to large-scale
installations in stainless steel and steel are accented with found
objects, copper, stone, bronze, bones and wood and can be found in
private and public collections internationally.
“The essence of my work lies in breaking form into its most
basic and necessary lines, revealing the purist of attitudes and
emotions of a sculpture,” says Richard. “I take much of my
inspiration from nature. But more than the obvious (the land, the
sky and the water), I’m interested in representing natural
movement, cycles, rhythms and patterns in three dimensions.”
Richard is one of the organizers of the London Artists’ Studio
Tour.
Marijo Swick2 Lundy Lane, N6C 3G5226
[email protected] www.marijoswick.com#26 on the
map
Continuing with steampunk, Marijo Swick has created a collection
of work that is imaginative, decorative and functional, from lamps
and audio amplifi ers to airships and automata. Using the alter
ego, Professor Millie Moon, an explorer and scientifi c purveyor of
oddities and interesting “artifacts,” Marijo trades on this fi
ction of the future that never was.
Her previous work dealt primarily with genetics and ethics, and
she still incorporates some of the more tantalizing ideas into the
mechanical processes and beautifully gritty philosophy of
steampunk. Whether a crazy playful contraption, like a time machine
or jetpack, or an engaging digital painting, or a plethora of mixed
media, expect to fi nd something unusual at Marijo’s studio.

Arale Vallely is all about silk. From paintings and wall
hangings to unique silk jewelry and wearables, she enjoys exploring
the medium and new ways to utilize silk in art. Silk excels in
capturing vibrant colors, which Arale uses to portray interesting
subjects from her experiences in Asia, the Middle East, and North
America.
Arale also undertakes commission work, producing bespoke works
for clients. Arale’s studio is a gallery-like space, showcasing a
variety of her work in different sizes and styles. She also
provides examples of the process of silk painting, as she is eager
to promote silk art. The studio you will see doubles as her
teaching space, where she offers silk painting classes to
individuals or groups who want to experience silk painting and
create their own work.

@deborahworsfoldstudio#16 on the map
Deborah Worsfold is represented at The Front Gallery in Edmonton
and Buckland Southerst Gallery in West Vancouver. Her recent
departure into abstraction was launched through solo shows at St.
Thomas Elgin Public Art Centre in 2018 and Douglas Udell Gallery in
Edmonton in 2019.
A visit to her studio will offer a view into the full-time
practice of an established Canadian artist. Her exploration of
abstraction further extends her colourist abilities. Motifs vary,
as is her usual practice. The artist feels this keeps the work
vibrant and of quality while maintaining opportunity to invent and
express without limit. Paintings range from collage, small gouache
on paper to large paintings in acrylic on 76 by 67 inch canvas.
In-home trials and private studio visits are invited throughout the
year.
