Spring is Sp-ring-ing

Things are starting to happen in Red Deer- Summer Festivals, Events galore!!  We at Gallery IS  are going to do our best to be a vibrant part of this atmosphere in 2010.
May will bring us First Friday Opening for Sandy Warren- a personal favorite of mine and then June we are going to do a SMASHING PARTY to start our reno's.  Look out!!!  You will not want to miss out.  (We are talking about Live ART making, Live Music, and Wine and Food)

My painting is coming along- I just finished a new piece titled  "Viv's Giant Iris"- based on a one a day painting form the summer of 2009.    I am going to enter it in the ASA show upcoming in Calgary.  I will post more details after the submission is accepted.  Keep your fingers crossed.

I am really liking where my art is going.  I feel that the merger of the new and the old are really starting to take a shape of their own.  I will be forging ahead to see what comes of this new energy and painting style- I think I will stay with florals for now...but then again you never know.

Manulife Show is Up until May 2, 2020

Well, I did it, the show is up and ready to be view.  I think it looks fabulous and the feedback has been very positive so far.  I hope that you can get there to see the show as I am very proud of the work and would love to have your opinions.

The art pieces are a reflection of the one a day paintings project I accomplished in 2009.  I used the one a day paintings as thumbnails and tried to abstract them to show off the areas of the painting I felt were strongest.  They are done in acrylic mediums using transparent glazes and opaque areas of enhansent.  The work is large, 3 feet by 5 feet with a few of the paintings being slightly smaller at 36 x 48, and 30 x 48.
