Jay Dart has been featured twice on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation outlets. Above you can view his feature on CBC TV: The Exhibitionsits. He was also interviewed for CBC Radio: Q.
“Jay Dart’s whimsical graphite and watercolour drawings feature brightly-colored beards and magical mysterious sticks prominently. In 2013, Jay released his first picture book, Wanderer of Yawnder, featuring his artwork, with themes and scenes reimagined from his own Wanderer series of drawings, and words by Jiggs (his alter ego).” – juxtapoz.com
“The images, on the other hand, are a mystifying mixture of the mildly surreal, naturalistic, and childlike naivetee — following such big footsteps as local heroine Shary Boyle, and Winnipeg superstar Marcel Dzama, if they whipped up their works in a cabin in the woods, that is.” – Murray Whyte for thestar.blogs.com
Check out the beauty features by The Jealous Curator on the Art For Your Ear Podcast and on their site here and here.
“Last September, Dart won the Audience Choice Award at the Queen West Art Crawl. His work, which reflects our vanity, egoism and the absurdity of our lives, has been exhibited in Europe and appears on the occasional album cover. His delicate drawings and watercolours show a poignant sense of humour and outstanding intuition. He forces us to look at ourselves in the mirror.” – Fidel Pena for The Grid
