Geoff began his art training in Vancouver, B.C. in classes at the Federation of Canadian Artists, Emily Carr, and in the Graphic Design & Illustration Program at Capilano College.
Relocating to New York City to train at the Art Students League from 1997 to 2002, Geoff painted from the live human model in figurative realist classes before working in the abstract painting studios of William Scharf and Frank O’Cain. A figurative abstract process took hold in his work. Exploring linocuts and monotypes in Richard Pantell’s printmaking studio prompted new approaches in his painting.
Geoff currently lives and paints in St. Catharines. He has taught part-time in the Graphic Design Program at Niagara College and at the Willow Arts Community, and has served on the board for the Niagara Artists Centre, and has been a guest artist at the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts.
His paintings have been shown in Vancouver, Toronto, Winnipeg, Thunder Bay and Niagara, New York City, Washington DC, Minneapolis, Sweden, Norway, and Trinidad.
