Biographical history
Tom Forrestall is a Canadian painter born in Middleton, Nova Scotia in 1936. After graduating in 1958 from Mount Allison University (where he studied with Alex Colville (1920-2013) ) he was assistant curator at Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton. The following year he became a full time painter. His realistic works, often done in egg tempera, convey his ideas of the East Coast landscape and its dwellings. He painted a large number of out-of-doors watercolours, which express much the same ideas as his egg tempera work, but in a more relaxed, and joyous mood. He became an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1986.
Custodial history
This painting, a work that was painted in 1958 while Tom Forrestall was a Fine Arts student at Mount Allison University, was a gift from Music Professor Howard Brown in 2001.
