Cottage Windows:  This spring and summer as I continue with my cottage window series, I've moved into the garden, attempting to capture the daily life and changing world of the gardens of these three cottages. I'm also bringing the gardens into the houses with renderings of flowers gathered and brought in, placed in vases in the windows. 

Shows: I'm looking forward to a very busy summer, participating in a number of community arts events, as well as shows with  my friend Teresa Knight. 

Ten members of the Comox Valley Chapter of the Federation of Canadian Artists have come together with a promotional booth at the Comox Valley Community Market, an artisan fair that runs every Saturday through the summer. We have cards, prints, and paintings on display, information about the Federation, and on site painting by myself and other artists. Our market dates are: June 20, July 19, August 15, August 22, and September 5. The Market is in Simms Park, Courtenay,  and is open from 9:30 to 3:30. 

On July 11 and 12 Teresa Knight and I are having a Show at the Filberg Heritage Lodge, at Filberg Park in Comox. I am also taking part in Local Colours on July 16 and 17, painting on site in the city of Courtenay. On July 25 and 26 I will be taking part in the Studio Tour with my home studio open to the public. On August 8 and 9 I will have a booth at the Originals Only outdoor art event at Comox Marina. As well I will have work in various groups shows in Comox Valley community galleries. 

Updates: Six new paintings have been added to the 2009 gallery.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

Apple Blossoms

As the weather changes and spring slips into summer, I am continuting my window series with scenes from the cottage gardens. The blossoms in my friend Kaz's apple trees formed an intriguing circular window which gave a view of the window in the little purple cottage behind. This natural window caught my fancy, the idea of layers in life, window upon window that can give us a new view on what we see if only we look through.
