"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

"Gathering"

Gathering / 24x30 / acrylic on canvas
What a busy week it's been, and it's only Wednesday morning.  First I want to thank the lovely lady who purchased this piece and so kindly sent me this photo of it after my demonstration last week.  I chose to call this painting 'Gathering' because it not  only reflected where I was with a gathering of creative people, but also reflects this space that I see as a place to gather my thoughts.  It's definintely a place I'll spend some time today before I begin more busyness this evening.

I've been hanging a new exhibit at the library and speaking to many area artists as a friend and I have decided to take the time to create a kind of directory for the local arts community - we just started a few days ago and already have almost 50 artists included.  We wanted it to be an online hub of sorts of the arts as I am very proud of this community of people that I call my friends.  You can take a peek at it here - www.airdrieartists.weebly.com.

I've also just completed a commission and two calls for exhibits, and have another commission and another two calls to complete.  And, of course, the odd meeting sprinkled in.  (Breathe.)  And here I thought I'd take it easy this fall.  I don't know what I was thinking.

Thank you kind sir - it is always the most enjoyable for me to paint dramatic light.
