The exhibit is on from June 5th to June 29th, 2014, and celebrates the floral beauty of our planet.  

On at the same time is the Spencerville Garden Tour, and the 416 Art and Mart outdoor Art Market, both on June 21st.

Tiger, Tiger, Burning Bright

I love the big cats, and tigers are one of my favourites. They look so gentle and are in reality so dangerous...especially when taking care of their young.  

Here is a photograph of a tiger that is very similar to a panel I just purchased featuring a tiger.  Look forward to seeing a new creation called "Shirkan" by the end of the year.  I would love to say by the end of the summer, but that's not going to happen.

 

Coming This Summer

Life has just been so busy.  It seems that I am more in the mood to quilt these days,  so I have been designing door quilts.  They will hang in ArtScene Spencerville, and as I finish them, I will be sure to take pictures, and post them on the blog.  They aren't large -about 27" x 60" and hang on magnets on steel doors.  

The next ones to watch out for will be entitled "Roses of Summer" and will be pastels in a dark border.  I don't have it all designed yet, but it should be interesting.  

Our feature exhibit, for the month of June at ArtScene Spencerville is entitled "The Art of Flowers", and will be a group exhibit.  Please come and visit us during the month to see some wonderful new work by our artists.

Our Grand Re-Opening Was A Fantasic Success!!!!

We had our grand re-opening on Saturday, April 5th and everything went off without a hitch.  Our MP, Gord Brown joined us, and our MPP, Steve Clark, was with us in spirit.   

ArtScene received well wishes from both, as well as an artistic achievement award from the Friends of the Spencerville Public Library.  The media and radio coverage was spectacular, and we had lots of coverage from all the local newspapers and radio stations, as well as some television coverage.  All in all, a great day.  The video coverage can be seen on the Eastern Ontario Network and the link is on my Facebook page. Here are a couple of pictures, of the speakers, and my work in the background, along with two of Christopher Fawcett's photographs.

ArtScene Spencerville - Better Than Ever!!!

It took two months of amazingly difficult work, but we are back together and it is wonderful to behold!!

Our grand opening will be on April 5th, 2014 at 11:00 am.  For more information, follow ArtScene Spencerville on Facebook, and if you are in the area, please plan to be there.

For myself, I have finally completed my Mated For Life series of two wolves, and you will find them in the Art Gallery 2014.

I have a few more to complete for my exhibition at ArtScene for the month of April 2014 entitled "Wonders of the Orient".

I'll be posting more on Facebook and on the blog, as things shape up.

January Is Bringing Lots of Changes

January has certainly brought changes to ArtScene Spencerville!!

For those of you who are not aware, ArtScene is a cooperative art gallery located in Spencerville, Ontario.  The building was purchased in November 2013, and major renovations started in early January.  We are now at the painting stage, and the amount of work already done, and still to be done is daunting.


We hope to re-open by February 14th, yeah! Happy Valentine's Day!!
Our opening exhibit is entitled "Art From the Heart" celebrating love, family and well being until the end of March 2014.

And in April, I will be the feature artist, and the exhibit will be entitled "Wonders of the Orient".  There will also be some coordinating photographs of Japan by Christopher Fawcett.  More on this as we get closer to the event.


If you are an artist and would like to display your work in a fabulous gallery, and work with amazing artists, drop me a line, I'd love to hear from you.  ArtScene is a wonderful organization.
