Two recent commissions for The Drake Hotel in Toronto Canada. They're both chalk pastels on chalkboards. First is of Rosedale subway station and second is Eglinton West Station. These two are joining the previous two in the dining and bar area. :D

Thank you very much for the opportunity and the support! :D:D

Drake Hotel Artist Interview

Hey everyone! If you're wondering who that is well that's me, the quiet guy behind the art work on this account. Thought I would take this opportunity to tell you a little about myself, I'm sure everyone is very excited 😏. Born in Portugal Lisbon and immigrated to Canada back in the 90s . . . Actually on second thought instead of reading 30+ years Bio it might just be easier to check out the interview by @thedrake that I did after my artist in residence with them😉.

This is last piece piece I did for my Artist in Residence at @thedrakehotel . This piece is of Rosedale station, a subway station in Toronto Canada. 5 feet x 3.5ish feet chalk on chalkboard. The two pieces will be put up in the hotel.☺️🎉 Special thanks to Ashley Mulvihill the curator and @thedrakehotel for providing me this wonderful experience and hope to work together again.☺️🙏

I'll be the Artist in Residence @thedrake in Toronto for the next few days. Working from their Artist loft.☺️ I'll be working on a small project doing illustrations on 5 foot chalkboards. (Like the one in the first pic) This will be fun and challenging since I've never worked with chalk as a medium.🎊😋 Stay tuned for updates!! . . . . . #diogopinheiroart #perspectiveart  #contemporaryarts #fineartwork #geometricabstraction #canadianarts #fineartist #curator #geometricaart #fineart #architecture #thedrake #thedrakehotel #toronto #residence #residency #artistresidency #chalk (at The Drake Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWBkgpIPjfp/?utm_medium=tumblr
