Drawnonward Art Exhibition in Toronto, ON

Last September I went on one of the most amazing trips of my life: an expedition cruise with Adventure Canada to Baffin Island, Nunavut. I immediately fell in love with the Canadian Arctic and am planning ways to get back there this year.

Baffin Expedition Art Show by Dave Marshak and Rob Saley in Toronto, ON

While on the trip, I met two outstanding artists, Dave Marshak and Rob Saley. They’re part of a collective called drawnonward, who are regular guests on Adventure Canada cruises.

While I expressed my awe of Baffin Island with words, Dave and Rob articulate their passion for the north in their paintings. They’re stunning. Awesome. Breathtaking.

Although I won’t be in town, they have just announced their “Baffin Expedition” art exhibit in Toronto. If you’re in the city, I highly recommend you stop by and take a look at their amazing work. It’s possibly the best way to see the magic of Baffin Island without actually being there.
