Originally from Montreal, Blair has lived in Ottawa since 1973. He has held numerous solo exhibitions, mainly in Ottawa and Toronto, including a major mid-career survey at the Ottawa Art Gallery in 1989 and has been included in group shows across Canada and abroad. His most recent solo exhibition was On Some Faraway Beach at Toronto’s Fran Hill Gallery in 2010.
“Painting is a process of sustained improvisation—one thing leads to another. My work comes about as a result of a sensation, a gesture, an inkling, a partial concept, or whatever…and spontaneously and naturally expands from there.” Blair Sharpe
