rainforest study

Rainforest Study

Each year the fiber art group I belong to, Articulation, goes to a special place in Canada to do a study. This year we went to Vancouver Island to do a study of the rainforest. We all came away with books full of sketches, many photographs and lots of ideas for new works. We now need to book a gallery to show these works in about 2 years.

Strut your Stuff

On Friday September 31st, the first annual exhibition by the students and graduates of University of Calgary Continuing Education's Certificate in Visual Design was installed in the Mezzanine Gallery of the University Theatre.
On Monday September 10th an Artists' Reception was attended by by many of the artists, their family and friends and members of the faculty.
It is an exciting inaugural event that is getting a lot of attention from campus students and theatre attendees.
I entered 3 works from my Arctic body of work. The lighting in the gallery is excellent and there is plenty of space for each work to breathe in.
