PATRAITS: A 2020 PORTRAIT PROJECT

“I think a portrait should say more about a person than just what they look like.” — Pat LaCroix

This portrait project was the vehicle Pat employed to get myself back too, and maintain a modicum of sanity through this horrendous year of 2020. Among the 36 portraits in this little collection are some of Pat’s favourites from the Toronto Jazz Treasures book that he did in 2016 and 2017. There are several from an exhibition of Portraits ‘With Covered Faces’ that he presented at the Columbus Centre Gallery a few years ago and some existing portraits. The remaining 16 portraits were shot specifically for this project over the last half of 2020.
