Sarah Lazarovic—curator of the garage-based Montrose Portrait Gallery of Canada—is painting a portrait of a Torontonian every day. Each Monday, we'll feature one of those portraits here. Suggestions for subjects welcome.

Aron Tager has been a working actor for fifty-odd years, but the role that most often gets him stopped on the street is that of Dr. Vink in the early 90s kids scareshow Are You Afraid of the Dark? Though Tager doesn't have a computer—he says it would eat up his painting time—he knows that online fans of Dr. Vink watch clips* of him, chat about his character, and bandy about Dr. Vink's catchprase, "I am not a nutbag."

Tager was most recently seen in Billable Hours.

* this one also stars Neve Campbell.
