In the spirit of our Canadian winter Olympic success, we are featuring a selection of winter sports related artworks by Jason McLean. Known for his enthusiastic interest in a variety of sports, Jason has painted on various pieces of equipment including boxing gloves, bowling shoes, tennis rackets, baseballs and bats, hockey pads, cards and gloves and our amusing curling wooden scoreboard, “I Love Curl Rock”.
Jason’s use of the found object both highlights his experimentation with a variety of media and his witty sense of humour.
