About the Artist
Lorn Curry acquired his painting skills with master mentors and through self-directed studies.
Inspired by the European hyperrealist and photorealist masters, he also cites fellow Canadian east coast artist Mary Pratt as having had a major influence on his work.
His art is an ongoing exploration of the constants of life that connect us all as human beings through place and through time: cherished objects, childhood memories, and shared daily experiences.
A member of the International Guild of Realism, senior signature member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and member the North Shore Artists’ Guild, he exhibits regularly at a number of venues. His paintings have won several awards and are found in private and corporate collections across North America and Europe.
His medium is oil paint. His message, notwithstanding your parents’ advice, is that you should play with your food.
