”\u00a0Awards\u00a0and grants provide affirmation and recognition. Tastes vary, and public institutions are often able to respond to only a particular aspect of the things artist make. Private philanthropy widens the scope of what is valued. “<\/em><\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

What are you currently doing?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>

I am currently living and working in Stratford, Ontario. My goal has been to spent a significant part of each day doing the things I love best\u00a0\u2013\u2013 drawing, and more recently writing. Mostly, I have succeeded. I run a weekly life-drawing workshop to keep my figurative skills in shape and am writing and illustrating a cycle of stories set in a fictive version of Ontario that is not quite as strange as the real place.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0

<\/span><\/p>

What did receiving the\u00a0Ruth and Sylvia Schwartz Children’s Book Award\u00a0mean to you?<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/p>

Creating good art involves personal risk and moving the personal into the public makes artists a sensitive bunch of people. I won the Ruth and Sylvia Schwartz Children’s Book Award (then the\u00a0Sylvia Schwartz Children’s Book Award) for the first book I illustrated, Zoom Away. The award gave me the\u00a0needed\u00a0push to quit my day-job and make art my career.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

What does private arts philanthropy mean to you as a working artist?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

On one level, awards and grants are a source of money. They allow artists to make more work. But they also provide affirmation and recognition. Tastes vary, and public institutions are often able to respond to only a particular aspect of the things artist make. Private philanthropy widens the scope of what is valued.<\/span><\/p>
