I was honoured to be the recipient of a Local History Award last Wednesday, April 9th, at Museum London. "This award is to acknowledge the significant contribution you have made to the awareness of local heritage architecture by means of your drawings, paintings and your publications."
The London Heritage Awards are presented annually by the Architectural Conservancy Ontario – London Region and Heritage London Foundation. This was the 18th annual. It was a great evening at Museum London! Thank you to the awards committee, volunteers, event sponsors, and all those who made the awards ceremony possible. The London Free Press has highlighted some of the award winners here: https://lfpress.com/news/local-news/18th-annual-london-heritage-awards-winners-unveiled. Historic London architecture - WHY, you ask? I moved to London in the 1980s. I have lived, worked, and walked in downtown London ever since. Walking is the best way to observe your surroundings. That's where my inspiration comes from. Simply, I like what I see, and I feel the need to capture it. I currently call Blackfriars/Petersville Heritage Conservation District home. I still walk every day and get inspired every day. You can find some of my London-based artworks and art cards at the at SHOP Museum London. You can also find many of my art cards at Magpie's Collected Creations - Covent Garden Market. Comments are closed.
