PAINTING: DAVID CRIGHTON<br />
The Rex Hotel Jazz and Blues Bar’s walls are a rich visual<br />
treasury - photos and memorabilia reflecting decades of<br />
music and community history. The room has this comfortable<br />
vibe, as if you’re always surrounded by generations of<br />
friends. You can walk in for breakfast, when there’s no music<br />
playing and the walls quietly sing anyway. One day in 2009,<br />
artist David Crighton walked in with a signed and framed<br />
reproduction - his painting of the quirky Queen Street West<br />
Toronto building. It was an unexpected gift from a deeply<br />
creative guy who just “gets” buildings the way some people<br />
just “get” music. A graduate of OCA in the 70’s, his fascination<br />
with architecture and art led to a lifetime of capturing<br />
the diverse architecture of Toronto and Southern Ontario<br />
(and some other places too!), in pen-and-ink and bright<br />
acrylics. You can enjoy other examples of his work, and see<br />
some of your own other favourite places at davidcrighton.ca<br />
