A Gala or Two for the Holidays

The past few months have flown by and all of a sudden it is New Year's Eve - possibly my most favorite time of year (with Christmas vying for a top place as well). And as I was reviewing what I had written and looking at adding December's paintings to the site I realized I had completely forgotten to tell you what I have been up to.

I plan to fix that right now!

There were two shows I participated in this Christmas Season, Eye for Art and the 12 Jennifer_002.jpgInches of Christmas.

I love working on odd sized canvases because they present all kinds of interesting puzzles for me to work out. For the 12 Inches show held at ARTspace the artists were asked to create work that was no bigger than 1 foot by 1 foot including the frame. I submitted Jennifer, which I created especially for the show and Bronte's Skyline. It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to get my hands on some more 12 x12 canvas.

EyeforArtLogo.jpgEye for Art had a big fancy opening gala that I would have loved to have gone to - what better reason is there to get a sparkly something or other than because you are attending a GALA? Unfortunately, I had prior engagements and couldn't go. It was really an honour to be selected to participate in this show, and I am really grateful to have had the opportunity.

 

Looking back on this year I am really happy with how far I have come - literally (moving from Seattle, WA to London, ON) and figuratively. I am grateful... for so many things. And I can't wait for 2009!

Happy New Year!
