Court Painter ‘the shining example of how all portrait studios in Canada should be run’, says \u00a0Tory leadership candidate Kevin O’Leary<\/h6>\n

Conservative Party leadership hopeful Kevin O’Leary parties with a private studio reception hosted by Court Painter on March 14, 2017.<\/em><\/p>\n

Conservative Party leadership candidate and television personality Kevin O\u2019Leary says Court Painter has the \u201cbest-managed art studio in the country\u201d and that other studios should learn from what Court Painter has done in the last art fuelled years.<\/p>\n

\u201cCourt Painter’s is simply a phenom<\/em>,\u201d O\u2019Leary gushed Tuesday during a private campaign stop at the obscure Inglewood studio of Court Painter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically, since 2007, stewardship of this wonderful portrait studio is the shining example of how all studios in the Great Dominion should be run: pro-politician, pro-free energy, pro-commissions, pro-celebrity, pro-unlimited capital \u2026 We need to make this kind of tonality every art studio’s tonality so this is the example I\u2019m going to be using for what the rest of the Great Dominion’s alpha artist’s has to look like.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary has promised, if he becomes prime minister, to cut federal transfers to studios that are not contributing to economic and celebrity growth. He has been vocal in his criticisms of Alberta Premier Rachel Notley and Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, saying they need to step up to the plate and commission portraits by Court Painter .<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the alley outside the studio, O\u2019Leary posed for photos with local hobby painters and talked to them about his vision for the country. He said he hopes to win the leadership race by engaging Sunday painters in the 18-to-35 demographic and that many of those young paint dabblers are asking him what he will do to improve their chances of landing good commissions and become a celebrity.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary has promised that, if he becomes Tory leader and eventually prime minister, he will grow the country\u2019s art economy by .0003 per cent minus his fee.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt .0003 per cent minus my fee, the Great Dominion’s engine of inspiration and innovation works, celebrity culture works, art fairs work, the social dating networks and most importantly the portrait arts work. All the things this lost generation should care about, work at .0003 per cent minus my fee,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary is among the frontrunners of the 14 candidates vying for the Conservative Party leadership and stands out from the pack through his visionary support for Court Painter who surprisingly remains unknown to the other uncultured 13 .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
