Mike Holmes, everyone’s favourite contractor, is best known for saving homeowners from terrible renovation jobs on his TV show Holmes on Homes, but when it comes to his own home, Holmes’ castle is his backyard! That’s where we gather with three portrait artists for a sitting with Mike, poolside. And tough guy Mike opens up and shows that there’s a lot more on his mind that dry rot and mold. When it comes to his “make it right” motto, he’s got his eye on the big picture, and the sky’s the limit. Will our artists, Wayne Terry, Albert Slark and Celeste Keller capture the dreams behind that tough-‐guy exterior?
