Using art to uplift others: Mark Stoddart

As a kid, Mark Stoddart says he had a basketball in one hand and an
art portfolio in the other. Now his artwork is permanently
installed in Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena. With a career spanning
over three decades as a visual communicator, graphic designer, and
painter, Mark’s work illustrates the history of Black athletes,
entertainers, and public figures. He discusses the importance of
perseverance and his passion for mentoring the young artists of
tomorrow.
