FEATURING NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED AWARD WINNING ARTIST IN A SOLO EXHIBITION - Harvey Bodach

A journey of discovery with a nationally recognized award winning Canadian landscape and wildlife artist.

“There is much in our world that makes us stop and ponder the mysteries of life. For me, the excitement comes with seeing a majestic Bald Eagle scanning the horizon from a cliff side perch. It is also the sudden dash of a Cottontail Rabbit in hiding and the early morning fog rising on a lake as a family of Common Loons break out. Over the past 25 years, I have compiled a collection of paintings, sculptures and drawings that I think will inspire you. With a visual language, through multiple mediums, and by using a realistic style, this art will represent a growing artistic record of my experiences. It is now my privilege as a full-time artist to present my work at this first solo exhibition.” - Harvey Bodach
