Alumni Artists Flourishing
Ron Clarkin ’75
My submissions include: PEI, and Summerside Harbour. I do mostly landscapes, which are acrylic on canvas. Everything I know about art I learned from Fr. McKinnon, CSB, many years ago. I have a website for my art: ronclarkinart.ca. anks, and keep up the great job at the Blue Banner.

‘Lando Norris’, 2023
48” x 36” — Acrylic on Canvas is piece is part of a collection titled ‘Icons and Idols’, which explores the fascination with celebrity within pop culture. My work is rooted in a strong design aesthetic with a tendency toward minimalism and vibrant colour pale es. Drawing on my passions for pop-culture and vintage stylistic elements, I produce one-of-a-kind artworks that are distinct for their creative use of texture, colour layers, visual elements, and typography. mark@prpldesigns.com

I currently a end Carleton University for architecture. A er seeing the Instagram post asking for alumni art for the Blue Banner, I thought I’d send over some of my works from architecture school. Below is a 25-story condo building I designed. I also included an art piece that made it into the publication Building 22, published by Carleton every year.
