IL .<$$6:5 *t. ■H'.tJs Water color artist Don Staples is one of three local painters who will be featured at the Cream of Barley Mill this week and next. The exhibit by Mary Anfossi, Carol Reynolds and Mr. Staples will Water color artist Don Staples has been painting all his life, but it was only the last five years that he seriously considered selling selling his work. Mr. Staples, an Orono farmer and a former aeronautical engineer, recalled recalled last week that he sold his first paintings as the result result of a Rotary Club fundraising fundraising project. At that time, each Rota- rian was given $100 to invest in some special project' which would yield a profit to be donated to the club. Don Staples framed 22 of his best paintings and'held an informal exhibit at his home. He sold 18 of them for prices of $50 upwards. When he had paid the costs of the frames, he cleared a profit of $600 which was turned over to his service club. Since then, he has sold numerous other paintings. And the public is invited to view his latest works beginning beginning this Friday when the Visual Arts Centre will hold a show highlighting the work of three local artists. Joining Mr. Staples for the exhibition will be Mary Anfossi and Carol Reynolds. The show runs from one to four p.m. daily from Friday, May 11, to Friday, Friday, May 18. Although Don Staples has become more active as an artist during the past several several years, painting continues continues to be strictly a hobby. As a full-time farmer, he operates a hog farm with the help of his two sons. The farm also includes an orchard orchard and a sizeable corn crop. Don explains that he enjoys enjoys watercolors because, for one thing, they are more portable than oils. In addition, addition, he enjoys the unpredictable unpredictable effect of water colors colors which occurs as the painting dries and as the □ MANS begin with an opening on Friday, May 11, from seven to nine p.m. at the headquarters of Bowman- ville's Visual Arts Centre. The show continues to May 18, afternoons from one to four p.m. where he has lived ever mixture of water and paint is applied. It is the freshness freshness of water color which he enjoys most of all. Don's education as an artist artist has included courses at the Visual Arts Centre. "I'm always interested in how other artists work", he said. He is a member of the East Central Art Association and the Oshawa Art Association and he has exhibited at a number of juried shows. He first became interested interested in water colors while attending school. In fact, he worked with artist Arthur Drummond, a graduate of the Ontario College College of Art, and bank manager manager in Orono for many years. Don Staples is a lifelong resident of the Orono area, leaving the village briefly to attend University of Toronto Toronto and to work as an engineer engineer with a Toronto aircraft aircraft firm. Later, he returned returned to the family farm since. Artists generally find it difficult to define exactly where an idea begins. But Don suggests that many of his paintings are based on the landscape he observes at his home. In fact, one of his paintings is based on a view from a window in his house. "I've always liked skies," he adds, when he talks about how he puts together a painting. He adds that a • complete painting -- skies and all -- will frequently develop on paper without much previous planning. Of course, the best way to experience Don Staples' watercolors is to see them' first-hand at the upcoming exhibit at the Cream of Barley Barley Mill, headquarters for the Visual Arts Centre. His paintings are also available available from the Visual Arts Centre through their art rental program.
