Instruction

Since 2013, Dabic has been actively teaching Painting and Drawing workshops in both the private and post-secondary sectors. As an instructor, his goal has always been to
create a nurturing environment in which students can learn and build on the fundamentals of both mediums at their
own pace. Having studied under a Fine Art Conservator as well as a diverse mix of Contemporary Canadian artists, Dabic is well-versed in the visual language of both Classical and Contemporary realism; often searching for a balance between the two
in his own work. In addition to his technical training, he also spent four years working
as an Education Officer in the Art Gallery of Ontario’s Department of Public Programing and Learning.
