Elm Café Gallery

Love Letter to Skeleton Park

 

Love Letter to Skeleton Park is a series of paintings exploring and documenting Skeleton Park in Kingston, ON — a neighbourhood Callia is grateful to call home. 

 

The paintings will be available for view and purchase at the Elm Cafe (303 Montreal St. Kingston, ON) starting in June 2026 as part of Skeleton Park Arts Fest (Skeleton Park Arts Fest '26). 

 

Callia Silverton works with acrylic and gouache paints to depict a wide array of subjects, including landscapes and portraits of people and animal friends. She uses bright colours and loose, expressive brushstrokes to deftly depict light and atmosphere. Her works focus on themes of home and memory, and allow the viewer to step into the scene as if they were right there with her. Callia grew up in Toronto and studied fine arts at Sheridan College before completing a Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Toronto and a Master of Science degree in anatomy from Queen's University. Her combined science and art background reflect a curiosity and connection to the world that is reflected in her artwork.
