Dave Todaro Art

Dave Todaro Art I'm a surreal wildlife painter from Montreal - lover of nature and the elegant universe.

I'm a surreal wildlife painter working out of my studio in the heart of the Mile-End district of Montreal. In my paintings, animals act in unexpected ways and draw attention to a scene unfolding in a recognizable, yet secret environment. We are invited to witness intimate moments – moments of tension, serenity and belonging; to experience a surreal glimpse into worlds too hidden and intimate to co

me across in everyday life. I have been navigating the art world for the past 15 years as a commercial artist, designer, art educator, muralist, and as an art director. All the while, I have kept a painting practice, exhibiting in galleries and collaborating with other artists from around the world.

Beacon | 16" x 12" | acrylic on panel

Three Black-capped Chickadees are drawn to a howling Gray Wolf. The glowing wolf stands as a beacon of light in an otherwise gloomy forest. The birds bask in its presence, recognizing it as a symbol of hope and peace.
