The Whyte Avenue Artwalk is only a couple more days away...July 15-17, 10 am -5 pm. I am excited to be there and sharing my art with whomever comes by. I have a new tan gazebo this year  so my paintings are more protected.
It is fun to see and meet the other artists that are in my area - to inspire one another, encourage each other. There are about 300 artists participating.
I encourage you all to come by if you are in Edmonton, we will be there rain or shine but I am hoping the rain will stop by then.
I will be in Iron Horse Park (space 11) 103St and Whyte Ave. (About the middle of the park, under a tan gazebo.)

I recently finished a couple more small starfish paintings wihich are framed and ready for the art walk.

Dancing Starfish, watercolor, 3"x4"

And  - Stretching, Watercolor, 3" x 4"

Beacon Original Art

On April 30, I attended the Beacon Original Art Show in Calgary. I enjoyed the day with 12 other artists as we talked, shared and encouraged each other. It was a good variety of work and styles.As an artist,  I enjoy seeing how other artists can interpret the same subject matter.

Here you can see some of the different styles along side of my paintings. There was a fibre artist, a couple of photographers, acrylic, oil, pastel, and watercolor painters  We filled the place up with art.

I showed about 28 of my paintings, quite a bit of the "Beauty of the Coast" series and had lots of opportunity to talk about the paintings with different people.

A lot of people came through - close to 200! The group has done several of these spring shows and one in the fall. This was my first time joining them.

I was honored to have one gentleman want to take one of my paintings home with him. "The Road Less Traveled," now is being enjoyed by him..
