show teasers

Slow goes the turtle and slow goes I.
Still in process of documenting my work as I've had difficulty using Word program; and to figure out pricing whoa-ho thats a whole new venture in itself.
At least I was able to figure out how to fill out the gallery forms, lets hope they email back alright as my Word forms sure don't want to behave for emailing. Who ever said computers would make life easier, bah humbug, make trice the work load for me.

On a to a lighter song, I wish to share a couple of the interesting nests that I have built.  Enjoy!

 This one is made from the dryer lint after I washed a red wool blanket. The leaves are some craft leaves picked up at a garage sale last year though I found they were pretty crumbly so I washed a layer of white glue on them to help hold together.

And here we have eggs, yes eggs coated with wasp paper and painted orange inside so they glow.
Don't they look just lovely on the paper bag. Texture combinations, o-how I love the textures.
Have a wonderful weekend!

St Albert Art Walk

My paintings displayed in the window of the Art Gallery of St Albert extension studio for the month. The Art Gallery of St Albert is a wonderful public gallery run by the most amazing friendly and informative people who really rock.
I was excited to be invited to take part in the galleries art walk event this month, sadly I was ill and not able to attend and paint on location as planned; the good thing is though I was absent my art was displayed in the studio and the paintings were a big hit with viewers. Four of my paintings are on display until July.

Its a wonderfully busy month. The Calgary exhibition was extended one week and the Red Deer exhibition begins next week so transporting art from one venue to the next is the main theme of this upcoming weekend. I am grateful for my hubby for all the art transporting he does for me. The exhibition in the Marjorie Wood Gallery at Kerry Wood Nature Centre opens on June 24th and goes till aug 1st.

Big Hugs, a hug shared is a hug received!

Smiles for all

Good morning, it a beautiful day, the sun is smiling, the house finches are taking turns at the pop-bottle  feeder. Life is good. Here are a couple photos that Sharon Sargent Graham took of me at my show. Thank you Sharon, its nice to have an outside shot, and as you can see it was Canada day, the day where Canadian flags are seen everywhere.
