Hello Dear Art Lover
Flip Flop
And I wish I was referring to footwear! Our Ontario weather is keeping us guessing, moving from winter to spring and back again. Is it teasing your inner gardener? I don’t do a lot of planting but I do love a bit of colour of course. Do you have any reliable shade favourites? I need some suggestions please.

Only a few more sleeps til THE ART SHOW. 16 excited and talented artists will be together at the art event of the season at Peg’s lovely home and garden. Peg has been holding this wonderful party for 13 years to feature her many artist friends, clients and as a fundraiser for various causes. I hope you’ll come out to support us and Indspire too next WE.
You’ll be able to see ‘The Conversation’ in the flesh. I’ll show you how I used the gelli printed papers to create this unique artwork.
I am so honoured to have one of my paintings in IMPACT 2025, the 32nd annual juried exhibition at the Neilson Park Creative Centre July 8-July 26. ‘Prince’, features a bubble gum pink dog and an adorable youngster, also a prince, done in my Fauvist inspired style, which embraces bold hues in unexpected surroundings.
Have you seen the current Taren White Gallery Magazine? It’s online and I am thrilled to be a feature artist in this issue. Taren is a super talented curator and gallerist who has moved her gallery online. As well she is a talented artist in her own right. I am so proud to be associated with her. You can find her @tarenwhitegallery on IG. Look for the launch on June 1.
Do you pay attention to what you pay attention to? That is one way YOU can live artfully. I’ve mentioned the inspiring book ‘The Art of Noticing’ by Rob Walker, before, but it is worth repeating. Especially in these times in which we are living. What grabs your eye? Pay attention or perhaps seek out those small bursts of whatever brings joy to your heart. The more you are aware, the more you will see and know that there is beauty all around.
Always grateful for your support,
ROCK ON,
Gail
