Clifford D. Train

 

Kettle Portrait, (c) Keith Moreau

Artist included in the 1967 book
A History of Peel County: To Mark Its Centennary*

Four years ago [in 1963], Clifford D. Train moved to Brampton from Toronto, where he is [as of 1967] art director for Cockfield Brown and Co.

He studied art at the Central Technical College in Toronto, and although he turned to the medium of commercial art, he retained an interest in water colours, and spends most of his spare time painting landscapes of the Peel Countryside.

A designer and lay-out artist, his work has been frequently seen in the magazines of the Imperial Oil Company and the Esso Company.
