Hello Dear Art Lover
Did You Guess?
Did you stuff yourself with food and family love last WE? I truly hope you did. I am very grateful for being able to surround myself with the joy of family. Even though it does get a little noisy, and there is always some drama, for us it's good drama. The most noise coming from Theo, as his brother Fox, accidentally (of course) gave him a small black eye during the wrestling match. Don't all little boys do that?
The outdoor art fairs are over for this year, but the art making continues. I'm working on aspecial project of new work in time for holiday gifting that I'm basing on my recently completed large painting called 'Love You Forever'. It's a very sweet story that I'll share soon. I hope to capture the beauty of the sentiment in a way that you will like.
Our annual holiday market 'Gifts for the Soul' that was derailed for 2 years is back again. This year it will be at the historic St. Matthew's Clubhouse on Broadview Ave, north of Gerrard on Sat Nov 26. We have some new vendors whose work is very unique. I'm sure you'll find a few things that will be just perfect for that special someone.
You might be wondering if I've changed my style. Surprise!!! This fabulous painting is by the talented artist Kit Cutting who bought one of my paintings a few years ago. It's almost life sized , 4ft.x 5ft.. 'Schooner' looks like he could reach right out and give you a kiss, doesn't he? Kit says he's not for sale, but I bet if you looked at her website, you might find something there that you just have to have.
Kit has a website with 10 other artists in Port Stanley (online). Her web part is https://portsidegallery.ca/product-category/artists/kit-cutting/
I love to see what creative endeavours are happening with my tribe. Send me some photos and ideas please.
Included today is the current W!P (work in progress) that my nephew Bill and I are engaged in. This time, he's at the helm. We are very simpatico and it still surprises me that we work so well together. Is weirdness in our DNA perhaps?
If I haven't told you lately...I love you...thanks for your continuing support.
Rock on,
Gail
