Rob Croxford
Meet Rob, a self-proclaimed fancy-boy, who eschewed ‘the sports’ early on to embrace his passion for art and design! He enjoyed a decade long career as a Scenic Artist, leaving his mark on stage and film sets. His artistic journey then took a turn into the world of mural painting which finally lead to showing his own artwork. Since 2004, Rob has dedicated himself solely to his fine art career, refining techniques and honing his unmistakable 'artistic voice’.
Through two decades and multiple life challenges, Rob has presented 12 full collections of artwork - that’s almost 1900 pieces (gasp!). He has been in nearly 200 juried solo and group exhibitions as well as numerous large art fairs including The Toronto International Art Fair, The LA Art Fair, The Artist Project and The One of a Kind Show. You can find Rob’s art in the permanent City of Toronto Art Collection and in private/corporate collections all over the world (including celebrities like Alex Lifeson, Stuart McLean and Yannick Bisson). In 2021, he was thrilled to be commissioned to create art for the 100th anniversary of the TTC. In the last few years, Rob has collaborated with iconic names like The Tragically Hip, The Doors, and James Brown. Rob is currently represented in galleries locally from Toronto to Prince Edward County, all the way to Victoria BC., Chicago, and Los Angeles.
Amidst the challenges of today's world, Rob's acrylic paintings serve as beacons of light and joy. His vintage-inspired work merge pop culture with nostalgia, humour and sometimes a little cheeky political commentary. With plans for 'total global art domination,' Rob invites you to join the journey, because in his world, escapism isn't just a luxury – it's a necessity for survival!
