Jordan Clarke, Visual Artist

Jordan Clarke, daughter of Patricia Clark and the mother of Patricia’s first grandson, is a Toronto based visual artist. She graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) in 2007 with a Bachelor of Fine Art degree. While at OCAD, she was fortunate enough to participate in an off-campus studies program in Florence, Italy.  Since then, she has studied at the Academy of Realist Art in Toronto and, in 2015, completed a month-long artist residency, at Fresh Milk in Barbados.

In addition to her art practice Jordan has discovered a love for jewellery making.  Working primarily with brass metal her designs are bold yet organic.  Most recently she has taken several metal-smithing classes at George Brown College.  

One of her fabulous brass pendants is donated to the Silent Auction.  You can see more of Jordan’s work on her website.

Painting by Karen Cantello

Karen is an artistic and organizational dynamo.  Who can forget her masterful construction of the ‘Town Well’ that enhanced the staging for Frog Princess or her ‘can do’ attitude as production manager. 

But before she joined act2studioWORKS, Karen was an accomplished artist and continues to work in the field.  Karen’s website is down just at the moment, but we are hoping that it will be up very soon so that you can peruse all her incredible work.  Click here to try.   

Karen has donated a painting entitled ‘Washington Square’ to the Revels silent auction.  I love the vibrant colour and the mood it creates.

Olga Zamora - Actor & Photographer

act2studioWORKS members will remember Olga from acting classes she took with them or perhaps in her role as Lord Pembroke, English Herald in King John in February 2017.  But there is more to Olga’s creative talent than her acting.

Olga is also a fabulous photographer.  Check out her website by clicking here.  You will be mesmerized as you wander through the images of her photographs.  

Olga has donated an outstanding framed photograph, Papyrus Pond, to the Revels silent auction.  It is part of her Green collection in her Photo Galleries.  Wouldn’t you love to take it home with you?
