INDIVIDUAL WRAP 16 s SUPER SPECIAL lc BY JOANNE UCHANAN When Ric Riordon was living in Goderich as a young boy, he admits that he never really appreciated the town's old architecture. Now living in London and freelancing as an artist, he has become increasingly fascinated by Huron County's historic buildings and has captured many of them on post cards, hasty notes, a commemorative calendar and a LACAC. brochure which he recently produced for Bayfield. So far, Ric's areas of concentration have been Goderich and Bayfield but he is planning to draw some of Clinton's historic buildings in the near future too. Born in Goderich in 1957, Ric moved to London in 1970 where he attended H.B. Beal Technical School for five years, graduating as a special art student. After his fine art training, he pursued an apprenticeship at Design Associates as an graphic artist. After leaving Design rd Associates, he was employed by three other major art studios in London. Last year, he received two Gold Awards for his watercolor illustration "Poet and a Clown" and was nominated for the best in show at the Annual Advertising Art Society of London Exhibition and Awards presentation. The past four years have found Ric on his own in a successful freelance capacity, doing work for Theatre London, 3M and several other businesses. He also does commissioned work such as illustrations of people's homes and he is hoping to expand his entire freelance business soon. Ric says his love for old architecture was partly born from his study of design drafting and partly from his connection with the Huron County area which is rich in historical buildings. His attachment to Goderich and Bayfield are purely sen- timental he explains, the former because he was born there and the latter because r KRAFT QUALITY MIRACLE WHIP ,W mL JAR SUPER SPECIAL 1 9° DIETRICHS 100% WHOLE WHEAT BfiEAD OUR REG S1 01 SUPER SPECIAL KLEENEX FACIAL CLASSIQUE TISSUE YELLOWSHEET MOCHA SUPER SPECIAL 9 1 MACARONI & CHEESE KRAFT DINNERS 225 g PKGS F 0 R 1 SUPER S!?ECIAL BLUEWATER BOSTON BLUE FISH KRISPS SPARERIB OR PINEAPPLE -CHICKEN WONG WING DINNERS BLUEWATER FROZEN PKG.

CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 19 ts1ayfi he was married there ( to Shirley McFadden, also an artist). Although now living in London, he and Shirley still spend a lot of time in this area. Two years ago, at the suggestion of his father-in- law, Ric drew some pen and ink sketches of Bayfield which he turned into prints for post cards to sell at the Bayfield Fall Fair. These post cards were later picked up and sold by the Bayfield Country Store. Last year, while selling his cards at the fair, several people requested his work in color and that's when Ric got the idea to produce a calendar. He spent $4,000 of his own money and came up with a calendar depicting Bayfield's main street businesses in the colors of the four seasons. "It sort of promotes Bayfield as a year-round vacation spot," says Ric who hopes to at least break even on the project. So far, he has sold about 400 calendars, 1 011 c including 50 of them at the recent Bayfield Fall Fair. They are available at the Bayfield Country Store, Gannmage's Totality Gift Shop, the Red Pump Gift Shop and the Village Guild. This year, the Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee ( LACAC) in Bayfield hired Ric to design and illustrate its brochure. Having completed this, he then produced four pen and wash illustrations of historic Goderich buildings, in- cluding the Huron County Pioneer Museum, the old v -PAGE 9 s CPR station, Goderich Town Hall and the Huron Historic Jail. His favorite is the old CPR station because that is where his father used to work. These illustrations are now available in hasty note form at Squire Gifts and Kings Book and Gift Shop ( for- merly Anderson's) in Goderich. Ric hopes to draw The Livery and some other buildings eventually too. Any money he makes from these 'sidelines', as he calls them, will be put back into his business.
