Industrial Building

"Industrial Building" by Franklin Carmichael depicts a rugged Ontario landscape featuring an industrial facility set against natural surroundings. Although Carmichael was known for his watercolours, he also employed oil paints, charcoal, and other media to capture the essence of the Ontario landscape. His style often reflects elements of Post-impressionism, emphasizing bold forms and vibrant color. Besides painting, Carmichael was a talented designer and illustrator, contributing to various promotional materials and book designs. Near the end of his career, he shared his knowledge as a teacher at the Ontario College of Art.
