Ciss, Julius, currently Executive Director of JEWS FOR JUDAISM (Canada), was a prolific Advertising and Editorial Illustrator in North America from 1975 to 2004. He was also a popular Illustration Professor at The Ontario College of Art & Design from 1977 to 2004. Visit his website, http://www.juliusciss.com, for a sample of the hundreds of paintings he created during his award-winning illustration career in Canada. Some of his clients inluded Macleans, Toronto Life, Canadian Business, MacDonalds, Kraft, General Motors and Redpath. All Julius' paintings were done by hand, exclusively in Acrylic paints and without the aid of computers. The computer digital technology that we know of today, to create his highly realistic and complex painterly images, did not exist during Julius' career. Most of his paintings are approximately 18" x 24" in size and usually painted on Bainbridge board or canvas board. Once referred to as the Jewish "Norman Rockwell", Julius retired from both creating and teaching illustration in 2004 to devote himself full-time to the vital counter-missionary work of JEWS FOR JUDAISM (Canada), http://www.jewsforjudaism.ca. As of 2004, Julius Ciss does not accept commissions for 'creating' illustrations. If you are interested in acquiring rights to one of his images, you can contact Julius at ac.tenlleb|ssicsuiluj#ac.tenlleb|ssicsuiluj. or http://www.juliusciss.com.

Collins, John - was born in Washington, D.C. and moved to Canada when he was six
"Critics often remarked that one of the distinguishing marks of his drawings was an absence of malice, that he was able to make his point without offending his subject. His signature character was an average Joe in a barrel, a perplexed observer of the passing scene he called Uno Who. "I swiped the idea from a guy in New York," Collins once acknowledged. "Another Canadian cartoonist, Bob Chambers at the Halifax Chronicle Herald, stole the same character and called him John Q. Public. But we agreed we both got the idea from a New York newspaper." Collins twice won National Newspaper Awards for his work, in 1954 and 1973. In 1969, he served as head of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists. He was a regular contributor to Saturday Night magazine and was founding president of the Lakeshore Artists Association. In 1971, Collins created the mural for the Humour Pavilion at the Man and His World exhibition on the Expo islands. He is probably best remembered, however, for the whimsical line drawings that accompanied Edgar Andrew Collard's local history column All Our Yesterdays. Collins was also recognized as a reputable local artist. His moody sketches and watercolours of Montreal streetscapes are sought by collectors. "The cartoons came first," he once recalled in an interview. "I always wanted to be a cartoonist. In the '30s, when I started drawing, nobody wanted to be an artist. There was no such job, but there were jobs for cartoonists…. They retired to St. Petersburg, Fla., in 1983 but returned three years later to become Canadian citizens and settled in Dorval. "We were disillusioned by how reactionary, distorted, intolerant, irrational and inflamed American society had become," Collins said at the time. "We no longer felt comfortable in the land of our birth."" [source - ALAN HUSTAK, The Gazette Published: Thursday, September 20 2007;

Comely , Richard - born 1951;
"Richard Comely was born in Radcliffe, England, in 1950 and moved to Canada at an early age. He started working as a graphic artist and illustrator while in high school. In 1975, he launched Canada's best-known national-superhero comic book, Captain Canuck, which was published initially by his Comely Comix and then by CKR Productions. Following the demise of Captain Canuck in 1981, Comely produced two issues of the comics magazine Star Rider and the Peace Machine (1982). He has since continued to work in the graphic-arts field, designing greeting cards, illustrating children's books and creating book covers. He has also produced videos and lectured on violence and sex exploitation in the media. In the mid 1990s he briefly resurrected Captain Canuck, creating a new identity for the hero. His contributions to Canadian comics were celebrated in the Superheroes/Superhéros stamps issued by Canada Post in 1995.

In 1910 he moved to London, studying in the evenings at the City and Guilds School. He returned to Canada as a commercial artist, although this was interrupted by war service during the First World War in Europe. In 1922 he settled in London and received the first of many poster commissions from London Underground. Over the next two decades he established his reputation as a top poster designer. After the 1920s his work became increasingly pictorial, and he produced work for the Empire Marketing Board, LNER (London North East Railway) as well as the London Underground. In 1943 he turned from his career as a poster artist to become a full time painter." [source - UK Nat'l Archives]

"This vase is further distinguished by a complete provenance. After its creation in 1917, it was given as a gift that same year by Jennings to RW Crouch, a decorative artist famed for his redesigning the cover of National Geographic magazine in 1910. Crouch resided for a time in East Aurora, and may have been associated with the Roycroft, perhaps as a graphic designer. The vase then passed through the next two generations of the Crouch family, whereupon in 2003 its significance was identified by a family member who visited RoycroftCopper.com (the power of the Internet!!)."[source: This is G o o g l e's cache of http://www.roycroftcopper.com/vases1.htm as retrieved on Jan 15, 2008 09:14:29 GMT.]
