Art Cunanan
Haliburton School of The Arts
Art Cunanan, an elected member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour and founding member of the Philippine Artists Group, Art Cunanan revels in the varied landscape of Ontario. Best known for his effective and sophisticated use of light, his watercolours sparkle with freshness and spontaneity. Born in the Philippines and educated at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila, Art's pursuit of his passion began as a commercial artist for a leading newspaper and several advertising companies in Manila. In 1984, he was introduced to the Canadian scene by Zoltan Szabo, a well-known artist and instructor. Since his Canadian introduction, his work has been accepted into juried exhibitions, private and corporate collections in Canada, the US, Europe, Asia, Australia and the Philippines. He is represented by galleries in major cities in Canada and has held successful exhibitions for several years. Some of his work was also reproduced by Carlton Cards, Bradley Museum and Royal Insurance for their brochure. In 1989, Art decided to devote his attention to painting full-time and started teaching at workshops for various art groups and art schools. A popular art instructor, he has been holding workshops across North America and Europe for many years. . www.artcunanan.com
