Dennis Wm Novosad

For more than 30 years I have lived in the beautiful town of Fergus. Drawing and watercolour painting was a natural extension of my earlier career as a mechanical draftsman.

My artistic talent has continued to grow through practice and participation in workshops with accomplished Canadian artists. I have also completed a number of Fine Art courses in drawing and painting at the University of Guelph.

I have won awards in juried art shows in Guelph, Elora and Australia. I had successful solo shows in Australia 2005 and Groves Hospital,Fergus, Ontario in 2008.

March 2012, while in Australia I won 1st prize for my watercolour "Cocky" at the 100th Nabiac Show, NSW.

March 31st I also won Jean Dixon Memorial 2nd prize Award at the Great Lakes Juried Art Show for my watercolour "New Beginning".

May-June 10, 2012-The Manning Regional Art Gallery in Taree, NSW, juried Wildcard Exhibition has accept "Not for Sale" to be in the exhibition.

How I approach my painting is well described in the article "Still Finding His Focus"  written by Matt Harris from the Fergus-Elora News Express and published in the Spring 2010 Sideroads of Waterloo Wellington Magazine.
