David Cantine (born 1939) is a Canadian painter, best known for consistently painting pictures using the same composition for the last forty years of his career.[1] Cantine was born in Jackson, Michigan, and went to school at the University of Iowa, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1962, and a Master of Arts degree in 1964.[2][failed verification] In 1965 he began teaching drawing and painting at the University of Alberta, until retiring from his position in 1996.[citation needed]

Cantine began to experiment with abstraction in the 1970s, including minimalist, post-painterly abstraction.[3]
