Tom Forrestall was born in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia in 1936. He was raised in Middleton and Dartmouth. His interest in painting developed by age seven and shortly after he started attending art classes at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in Halifax. In 1954 he obtained a scholarship to attend the Fine Arts Faculty at Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick. In 1958 he received, at graduation, one of the first Canada Council Grants for independent study and travel throughout Europe. Forrestall then married Natalie LeBlanc of Atholville and returned to Canada to work as Assistant Curator of the Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Fredericton. In 1960 a Forrestall painting was commissioned by the Province of New Brunswick and presented to H.R.H Princess Margaret on the occasion of Her marriage. In that year, he also realized his lifelong ambition as a professional self-employed artist and began experimentation with shaped panels for his art, for which he is now very well-known. Many important commissions and awards have since been bestowed on Forrestall. |
