Art Competition – certificate of excellence in Drawing category. Born in Montreal, Canada, Drew received a BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and an MFA from Rochester Institute of Technology. Drew is a freelance graphics professional presently working in the Hartford area and has paintings and mixed media constructions in private collections in California, Minnesota, Florida, Connecticut and Toronto, Canada.

The Windsor Palette and Brush Club is a friendly group of creative and accomplished artists of various ages and talents. We are always looking to grow. We are seeking new members who work in a variety of mediums; people who appreciate knowledgeable support for what they do and seek opportunities to publically display their work in the Windsor area.

The Club gathers on the second Tuesday of the month at the Windsor Senior Center 6:30-9 PM. A brief business meeting is followed by refreshments and then a talented art demonstrator shares their advice and skills. The Club sponsors two members-only exhibitions each year plus we show our work around Windsor on a bi-monthly rotation. Please consider joining us!
