While there, Bloore exhibited with Ken Lochhead, Art McKay, Ted Godwin and Douglas Morton in the National Gallery of Canada's Five Painters from Regina show in 1961.
The Regina Five, as it came to be called, lasted only a short time.

In his work, he concentrated on a white-on-white technique.
In 1967, Bloore was awarded the Centennial Medal and the Jubilee Medal.
In 1972, he received the Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award.
