Toronto Joins the Loop: Combining Art and Recycled Paint

TORONTO - April 6, 2015 - PRLog -- Acclaimed Toronto Artist Robert Slivchak is partnering with Loop Recycled Paint to create recycled artwork. Slivchak is a passionate advocate of reusing materials, reducing waste and recycling. 100% of his new work will be made using Loop Recycled Paint. His frames are made from reclaimed wood, and his canvases are made from worn sailboat sails.

The paint used for Slivchak’s art comes from an up-cycled product of Toronto’s waste paint. Every year, Loop receives thousands of gallons of paint from Toronto’s residents brought to Municipal Household Hazardous Waste depots in Toronto, diverting paint from our air, landfills and groundwater.

You can view Robert’s artwork featuring Loop Recycled Paint on his website www.slivchak.com. Loop Recycled Paint can be found at Walmart Canada for $17.97 a gallon or by visiting www.looppaint.com.
