Tim Singleton has lent his rainbow vision to Pride murals, postage stamps and everything in between. Take a tour of where “the magic happens” — his apartment in Toronto.

Surrounded by his favourite things, Singleton talks us through his creative process. From the comfort of home, he can paint the city in rainbow colours. As of posting time, Toronto's Manulife Centre is wrapped in Singleton's psychedelic artwork as a special commission for Pride. Last month, Canada Post revealed a new collection of postage stamps featuring his artwork — illustrations of significant Canadian queer spaces which are also appearing as murals around the country.

On the CBC Arts series In Process, we capture creativity in action, as the artwork — and the ideas that inform it — take shape in front of the camera. Watch more In Process: youtube.com/watch?v=k9ZglOrjalg&list=PLoRdH3LAgmi_1YfNbifrRD77gukr4vJ2U
