Alpin Canada – ART IN SPORT
Alumnus Patrick Biggs finds new passion that stays close to his roots
 

Calgary, Alta. – Two-time Olympian and nine-year member of the Canadian Alpine Ski Team Patrick Biggs (Ottawa, Ont.) has been tapped to create a unique painting as part of the fundraising for Alpine Canada’s celebration of 100 years of ski racing in the country. But how did the slalom specialist go from feeling the exhilaration and emotion of ski racing’s highs and lows to translating that emotion onto canvas?
 
“I’ve always enjoyed art,” said Biggs from his home in the nation’s capital where he’s been working on the initial sketches for the 100th Anniversary piece this summer. “I really got into it at university when I was studying engineering and studio art. Through that process, I got more involved in drawing and eventually took some painting courses which stimulated that whole painting side in me. I started painting that summer and it’s been a big part of my life since.”
