"That
painting took quite a while to finish. There was a lot
of lettering involved, as well as the placement and
design of the images. It's basically a group of small,
detailed paintings incorporated onto one large canvas."
-Wayne Mondok
Wayne was born in Toronto
in 1961. He is a self-taught artist who began drawing at an early age.
In 1983, he attended Humber College Graphic Design Program. After
graduating in 1985, Wayne worked as a graphic artist for a few years. In
1988, he began painting full time, and has done various commercial work,
including novel covers, book illustrations and other advertisements.
Wayne published his
first limited edition reproduction in 1988, entitled "Reflections of the
Past". This painting portrays the historic steamship "R.M.S. Segwun".
Reflected in the water of the painting, is an older image from the
ship's past.
Most of Wayne's paintings are done with acrylics, although he sometimes
uses oils, watercolours or gouache. Wayne paints various sized works
mostly on canvas, masonite or illustration board.
