45 Years Later and Old Enough to Know Better...
DatesJune 3, 2021 – July 5, 2021
Lucas Blok and Will Bullas serendipitously crossed paths (as fate would have it) 45 years ago. Along with their wives’ support, both decided to inject themselves and their artwork into the local art scene.
Three years later they had their first dual show at the Robert Louis Stevenson School Art gallery.
43 years later they are having their second dual exhibition in the Beardsley Room of the CAA.
They felt it was about time.

New Work
DatesJune 3, 2021 – July 5, 2021
This show has given me the opportunity to further explore some ongoing series, as well as to try something new. The confusion and uncertainty of the world's past fourteen months definitely impacted my work. I had more time to paint. While I often found solace in exploring familiar themes, my paintings sometimes took me in surprising directions. I still remain thoroughly engaged with abstraction, and I continue to write stories in paint that can be read differently and understood personally by each viewer.
