Distillery Coffee Break oil painting

 ‘Distillery – Coffee Break’ oil on linen board, 10″x10″

When you sit and enjoy a coffee from this old fashioned coffee bar in the heart of the distillery districtToronto, it’s easy to breathe in nostalgia and imagine the steam whistle’s blowing, workers hustling and the lives that were the lifeblood of this district 100 years ago. The cobblestone streets, aged red brick industrial buildings,warehouses  and platforms are now home to heaps of art galleries, boutiques & artisan foodie joints. This all to say it’s one of my favourite spots when i visit the city.

About Sally Chupick

The way light falls on form, that's what interests me. It effects not only what we see but how we feel about things. The challenge is finding a harmony in the complexity of it; mixing what I see and what I want to see to create my paintings. I work in oils and in watercolours.

    Beautiful work Sally,

    It reminds me of when my friends had a gallery there.
    Gone now, but the nostalgia remains.

    XO Barbara
