The Canadian Encyclopedia explains clearly that, fundamental to all ordering of events of the Earth's history, is the principle of the positional relationships of rock and mineral bodies.

Having recently read through various surveys and historical accounts of the Toronto bedrock, I am completely captivated by our timeline, which brings us back to  the Gerogeian Bay Formation, 450,000,000 years ago.

Inspired by layers and textures of surfaces and sections, these few images are a great resource.

Ces faits sur la ville de Toronto sont supers intéressants.

    about the author

    The blog connects thoughts on Landscape and Architecture, design, and mostly the connections between landscape architecture, art and our beautiful Toronto.
    I like to think that the large works on paper on which I assemble different drawing methods represent a kind of inventory or document about the state of our urban rivers.
    These works are of sort, investigations though architectural representation, cartography, abstract drawings, watercolour paintings, sketching, collages, and mostly creating pieces; connections and projections of history,  the environment, natural, man made, and often times, the abstract.
    Playing music, when not submerged in the creation of spacial art.
