George Wastle

A graduate of Redeemer University with a B.A. in Art and French in 2020, George also studied art in Florence, OCAD University and Dundas Valley School of Art. He has been a member of the Portage Arts Group and the Art Gallery of Burlington since 2019.

George brings his experiences to life with the vibrant colours and lighting of oil, acrylic, watercolour and pencil crayon pieces. From close-ups of local scenery to ornate European architecture, they combine organic and geometric forms, often featuring optical effects like double images.
