Hi. My name is Chad Cole and I’m a Toronto-based artist.
I've been lucky to travel Canada from Cape Spear to Tofino - with a thousand stops between. Beyond Canada, my wife and our two sons had the opportunity to live in Europe for a few years. I love wandering through great cities and galleries.

Thanks for reading.
