Obit: Christopher Pratt, 86

Newfoundland’s Christopher Pratt is an old favorite; my wife and I first saw and were impressed by a selection his early works when they were featured in the old Edmonton Art Gallery in 1971-72 thereabouts. They were often of houses, windows, the sea, animals, and women. We were struck by how clean, symmetrical, and picture-perfect his work was. With his passing and Alex Colville’s, Canada has lost its two best, well-known Maritime artists.
