Hello Dear Art Lover
Twirling round and round
My brain that is! That children's song by Raffi is going round and round with lists and lists of all the details that need to be attended to. You might know the feeling.
CONGRATULATIONS TO AURA!! You are the June winner of a free print. I hope you enjoy it.
Last WE the Central Connection 2022 art show at Withrow park clubhouse was such a success. Lots of wonderful guests supported the 19 amazing artists who worked hard to put their best foot forward. I was honoured to be part of such talent. This group has been putting an art show together for many years and they have it down pat. Plus I've made some new friends.
This show connected me with the famous Jane Smith. We have been trying to connect for a few years and finally had success. So great to meet those people you've only been able to 'see' online.
It will continue as the next shows will be thronged. I'm sure. We are all super excited to actually chat in person.
Here you will find attached, 2 posters for the next two shows I am in, the Rosedale Art Fair and the Riverdale Artwalk. They gave me booth C1 in Riverdale, a prime piece of real estate, right at the south west corner of the park. At this point I don't know where I'll be in Ramsden Park which is the setting of the Rosedale fair, so you'll have an adventure finding me. I will post on FB and IG when I know of course.
A wonderful book has come my way that you might also be interested in. The title is 'Ninth Street Women: 5 painters and the movement that changed modern art' by Mary Gabriel. I'm always on the lookout to broaden my art knowledge. Below is a summary of the book. Let me know what you think.
Five women revolutionize the modern art world in postwar America in this "gratifying, generous, and lush" true story from a National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize finalist (Jennifer Szalai, New York Times).
While we're on the topic of books, please send me your recent favourite read.
Don't forget to join me live on Thursday at 1pm on IG LIVE. I do take requests if there is something you'd like to see me attempt. I'm a bit of a 'one-armed paper hanger' but I get the job done. How's your noticing coming along? Rob Walker's book 'The Art of Noticing' is still being featured. Lots of interesting ideas and adventures to be taken.
Please know I do appreciate your interest and support.
Rock on,
Gail
YOUR STYLE + YOUR HOME + MY ART
