  Hard Edge Geometric Series
1964-'65

This series of hard edge geometric paintings, done when the I was 18 years old and still a high school student taking summer and night courses, at the Vancouver School of Art with teachers like Ron Stonier. At this stage of my development, I was also doing life drawing, still life and landscapes. These works, however, were influenced by the later European abstract painters such as the Italian artists, Arturo Bonfanti and Alberto Magnelli, the English abstractionist,Victor Pasmore, the early work of Victor Vasarely and also Jean Arp.
