So lately I've been inspired by the colours of this time of year.  It seems that water has appeared in a lot of my paintings.  This is the piece I've been working on. "Water Droplets" 30" x 40" Acrylic on Canvas

Thanks again to Brian Smith for inviting me to participate in his  Master Class at his studio at King and Spadina.  Complete a value study in reverse The image on the left is the reverse value (darks where there is light, etc.)  The right photo is reversed in photoshop.  It was really difficult to switch your brain around. Honestly I thought this exercise was pointless until Brian  showed us on his cell the reverse picture :) The next project was to incorporate random typography into your drawing. Number 1 I started with a charcoal rendering with no idea of where my type was going to go.  I thought that the reference to black and white and colour was clever... I think it looks very Toulouse-Lautrec... Number 2 I started with a charcoal rendering and completed a blind contour drawing over it.  This created a really neat effect. I then glued the type on the top.  We had 3 hours left.... everyone but me completed a portrait.  I went nuts

Great news!!  This year I've been invited by my artisan friends, Grant and Judy Parnell  to participate with them, at their house in Elizabethville.   The tour this year is September 12th and 13th. www.northumberlandstudiotour.ca Bulrushes 36" x 24" Acrylic on Canvas

OPENING RECEPTION Thursday February 12th, 6pm - 8pm The theme of this exhibit is surounding Valentines day, but not in the conventional way.  Its meant to explore the hidden and all too obvious links that bind people.  Not warm and fuzzy but real and uncomfortable. www.artagallery.ca

Type.  What would you paint if that is all the information you were given? The theme for the Artist Competition 2015 is TYPE.  We are invited to submit an original work of art based on this theme and the relationship between art and the use of text/language.
