Going under Bronson is an early drawing by Ottawa artist Eryn O’Neill. Depicted here is a snow covered Rideau Canal near Bronson Bridge. The industrial lines and cold hues are reminiscent of her more recent painting series depicting the construction of Ottawa’s light rail system.
Born in Ottawa, O’Neill holds a BFA from NSCAD University, and an MFA from the University of Waterloo. She competed her MA at Carleton University in Art and Architectural History and Curatorial Studies. O’Neill’s work has been acquired by Global Affairs Canada and the City of Ottawa Art Collection.
