Hello Dear Art Lover 

Merry Christmas to All and to all a Good Night

And just like that, here we are again. At the end of another year and the beginning of another. How blessed I am to be here at this time with a loving family, a wonderful gang of friends and an army of passionate lovers of my creative endeavours.  I never forget that I would not be where I am without such enthusiastic support.

And that is what I wish for you. To go after your dreams, no matter where you're starting from, no matter what your resources are. To never give up and to be true to your unique self. 

It's been very busy this last quarter of the year and next year it looks like things will be continuing in the same direction.  Labatt Studios will be moving. I hope you'll continue to come along for the ride.

In anticipation of moving, I'm planning anextraordinary sale. Stay tuned for the weekly announcements. You might be able to snag that original Gail Williams painting you've had your eye on for a sweetheart of a deal.

Throughout this past year, I have suggested several authors and resources that you might have found interesting. I know that art lovers almost always love reading as well as visual art. You may have noticed that I am passionate about paying attention to what intrigues you and that we are all artists in some way. Not necessarily on the canvas.

Here are five authors  that have attracted my attention this year. They are all amazing (in my opinion) and deserve to be explored.

Rob Walker..The Art of Noticing. He has a book and newsletter.

Hello Dear Art Lover       

My Heart is Full

Thank you so much for your support of my art career. This past WE we had the fifth annual Gifts for the Soul holiday market and it was a roaring success. That is because you have been such a super booster for me and my small business. You've bought my paintings, come out to my shows and brought friends and have told others about me. I wouldn't have been able to continue so confidently if I hadn't had your support.

This month I have one more art event and it's going to be wonderful!  My friend Karen, a talented potter and very active community member, has organized a mini art crawl in our neighbourhood. There are 3 stops on the tour. Karen's place will host herself and her dad the famous Fred Franzen and body care by Sarah Ann Goldnau-Vogt, fine art and tea towels by Sunny Mills, and textiles and jewellery by Tali Tjiang. Her address is 3 Wembley Drive. You'll find fabulous ceramics at Noel Yardley's place as well as work by Thomas Bollamnn. 416 Gainsborough Rd. At Lisa Herrara's gallery she will be joined by the talents ofJoanne Filetti, Scott Danielsand myself. Please visit us at Tangerine Dream Art Studio and Gallery, 8 Eastwood Rd. 

These 3 places are within a few blocks of each other near Coxwell and Gerrard. Free street parking. Easy access by TTC.

FREE ART DRAW
CHARITY GIVEAWAYS

You may now view the complete Small Works I have just added to my website. It's the 'Love You Forever' series, original acrylics on paper, 11 x 14 in, matted and ready to frame. FREE SHIPPING in Canada in time for holiday giving. This series was prompted by a love letter my Dad wrote to my Mom that was not discovered until years after he'd written it. A kind of 'Time Goes By' story if you know that BBC show with Jean and Lionel (Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer) The price for matted paintings is $300. I can add a frame for $20.00. Of course, you might recognize my homage to Klimt. I just can't help myself loving that man.

If you like Klimt, you may also want to check out another one of my favourites Friedensreich Hundertwasser. He has quite the story. An artist, architect, environmentalist.

Friedensreich Hundertwasser - Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Friedensreich_Hundert...

Who are you art loves?  Please let me know.

And now once again, I am asking for HELP. We have been given our final ..no more extensions.. get out of Dodge, notice at our studios at 7 Labatt Ave. If you have any leads on where a group of artists can find affordable space, please let me know. Our last day there would be March 31, 2023.  We have been very fortunate in having this location for as long as we have. I think there'll be a party happening in the new year. So stay tuned.

If you live in east end Toronto, you may have seen the article about me in the Beach Metro news. But, I have more press too!! If you'd like check out my interview in the online magazine Canvas Rebel.

Here's the link:

One of the questions I answer is about not starting this art career til later in life and that really made me contemplate my path. Perhaps you've regretted some choices you made in the past that you now see differently. That certainly is true for me. Years of looking at X-rays and scans have informed my art practise in ways I never would have guessed. ThanksLailafor pointing out the obvious. 

You'll find attached some images of my Walking the Dog series. I've decided I will do  commissions. The DEADLINE to have your painting ready for Christmas is Dec 18... The perfect gift for the dog lovers who have everything else but a personalized painting of their fur baby. Only $230. for one, or 2 for $399. 

Thanks so much for your support. I wouldn't be here without you.

Rock on,

Gail

Hello my friend       

Sneak Peek 

Were you the kid who just couldn't wait for Christmas and hunted through the house looking to find your parents' hiding spot? Well...that's me and I had 7 brothers and sisters to help. We were always giddy with excitement. It makes sense that I can't wait to share with you my newest small works, Love You Forever, before it's released to the general public on Sat. Nov. 26.

Every winter, I create a special series of small works at a special price for my community of friends to either start or add to their collection. It's a way to say THANKYOU for your support throughout the year.

This collection is inspired by my recent large painting, Love You Forever. You read that story in last week's newsletter. (The newsletters are archived on my website should you want to refresh your memory) If you've been watching me for a while, you might guess that I love the work of Klimt. It followed naturally that I would create a series all about love, shamelessly borrowing from his genius.

These original acrylics are painted on archival W/C paper, 11in x 14in, matted and ready to frame. For you, the special price is $270.00, available Nov 22-25, after which theprice increasesto $300.00. FREE SHIPPING in Canada. DM for international rates.
One was sold before it was even finished, so make your choice NOW.

The name of each little painting appears as text on the image, but it is not on the painting itself. I hope you like these delightful artworks as much as I liked making them.

Again, I thank you so much for your love and support.

LOVE YOU FOREVER

Gail

PS.. you can put your order aside with a quick etransfer..(just sayin)

Hello Dear Art Lover   

START THE CAR!!!

Isn't this weather just a little crazy?! I know you don't want me to say it, but...just a little tiny bit of snow wouldn't be that bad would it? Just enough to get everyone in the mood for the holidays. But before I go ahead and get all excited about what is coming up for the Christmas season, I really must take a pause to show respect on Remembrance Day. Even with all our political noise, I think we're very fortunate to live in this country. My dad was one of those young men who lied about their age to join the navy in WW2. Him and his best buddy, also named Bill, were on convoy duty accompanying bigger ships across the Atlantic. Thanks Bills.

My Grandma bought a camp (cottage to the southerners here) on Lake Superior in the 1930's. Imagine a drafty cabin, no electricity, no indoor plumbing. Anyways..it's been the scene of many a good time for almost a century. We have a 'camp' book, a guest book, that has been filled down through the years, with notes of appreciation from friends and relatives, drawings from grandkids and stories of crazy antics. We're a large family so we do have quite a few tales.

When my Mom was the owner, my Dad wrote a romantic letter to her about his adoration . My Dad died when he was 57, my Mom at 92. She didn't discover that love note until many years afterwards. My Dad, ever the trickster, put it near the end of the book. I've read that book many times and it always makes me tear up.

When I finished the painting you see here, it just had to be called 'Love You Forever'. And when I was deciding on what would be the focus of this year's ' Small Works', I knew it had to be my 'Love You Forever' series.

SAVE THE DATE ... SMALL WORKS
ADVANCE RELEASE TO VIPs … that's YOU

This year's Small Works will be open to you, my VIPs, at thespecial discountprice of $270 startingNov 22 - Nov 25. On Nov 26, the price goes up to $300 when they are available to the general public. I'll be posting photos so you can choose. I'll only have 9 and one has sold already. Here's a teaser to let you in on what to expect.

You could get your 'Love You Forever' original painting at our Gifts for the Soul holiday market on Nov 26, 9:30 - 4 pm, 450 Broadview Ave, (north of Gerrard St E). If you order ahead the price is $270. They are 11x 14, acrylic on paper, matted in a standard size, ready for framing.

Perhaps you'll see something else that you just have to have. There will be a fantastic choice of pottery, paintings, jewellery, wearable art, fibre art, notebooks and boxes made from recycled materials, and glassware. I can't wait to see what our creative team is bringing to the table. And of course, the weather will be perfect

You know I love to get letters from you! Steve sent this fun story a few weeks ago. It's a wild world out there folks.

Thanks for reading and for supporting my art adventures. You ARE the wind beneath my wings. You might see one of the many signs Dorothy and I planted in Riverdale. Thanks to all the folks who are helping to advertise our Gifts for the Soul Holiday Market 2022.

Hello Dear Art Lover        

JINGLE

There's a whole lot of shaking of jingle bells happening in my house these days. It's like when you have a dinner party and you do all the prep that you can do ahead of time, and it still looks like a disaster zone almost as soon after the first guests appear. I really didn't think I'd have that many art events for the holiday season, but I think accepted too many party invitations. Oh well...girls just wanna have fu-un.

Having said that...I hope that you'll be able to join in the merriment that I'm organizing. What's a party without the people?

I'm not sure if you remember the first Gifts for the Soul holiday market that we held almost 7 years ago. It was at Artscape on Shaw St in the west end. This year is our 5th annual celebration (factor in the Covid years). We are lucky to hold it in the historic St . Matthews Club house, 450 Broadview Ave, just north of Gerrard St E, in Riverdale park. It is the perfect cozy spot for our boutique. There will be some new vendors showing their unique work. Paintings of course, vintage and embroidered jewellery, elegant pottery, stunning fibre art, charming decorative birdhouses, painted glass ware, and the always charming creations by Janet from found objects..notebooks, boxes, hedgehogs. Come say 'Hi' to Dorothy, Joanna, Lorrie, Janet, Tracy, Deniz, Barb and Janet.

Check their IGs to get excited. @dorothyabarrett, @caveandcrownfibreart, @lorriekingpottery, @janetfpotterartist, @tracydaviesart, @denizinmushroomland, @barbielew

Please save Sat Nov 26, 9:30 -4pm for the only shopping experience you'll need. We'll have something special for everyone on your list.

As well, I am participating in a mini holiday art crawl here in my east end neighbourhood with about a dozen other very talented folks. Pottery, ceramics and fine art will be featured. Please mark your calendar for Dec 9-11. I'll be part of the Karen Franzen and Friends Holiday Market. Details to follow.

And is if that isn't enough, I'm working on a new series I'm calling 'Love You Forever' inspired by my latest full size painting. The details of how this story unfolded will be next issue's focus. You will have first access to this delightful new body of work at a special VIP price.

Added to this newsletter are some of my 'Walking the Dog' series. I had such fun with these and haven't had too many place to show them off. They are 12 x 12 in original acrylic on canvas and only $200. When the new owner buys the painting, I add the title 'Walkies with....' (fill in with your choice) on the back. I can change the colour of the dog if you'd like. They make perfect gifts. Especially for those hard to buy for people who have 'everything'. This is a limited series and when they're gone, they're gone. If you need 2, you get a discount. 2 for $350.00 Your'e welcome!

PS..Did you notice the new logo? Thanks again for your support. It means the world to me.

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.

Hello Dear Art Lover      

And just like that!!

Are you always as surprised as I am when, just overnight, it's time to get out the sweaters and gloves? It does happen every year, but I'm never ready. So I brave the new colder weather while still wearing sandals. I'll bet you do too. If I had to choose my favourite season it would be fall. I mean...look at all that orange! It's not a chance thing that orange has always been my number one choice.

Here's my story. My Grandma was an immigrant from Finland almost 100 years ago. She came over on a boat with 2 young daughters to meet her husband in Northern Ontario. She had a life filled with heartache and hardship but still managed to build a life in the freedom of Canada. One thing you may not know about Finns is that we are very clean. (We invented the sauna) She liked to repaint often. I was her chosen helper. She'd buy unopened bargain bin cans of paint..colour unseen. One year the colour was ORANGE. Everything was painted ORANGE that year. From the wood box, to the rocking chair, to the stairs in her house. It's been my favourite ever since.

Back to the art...a few weeks ago I was in the fabulous Artwalk in the Square outdoor art fair. The weather was perfect and the crowds were so enthusiastic . I had many insightful conversations with new art lovers and was so appreciative thatDouglas, Shelli, Evelyn, Rob and family, Amanda, Gabriela , and Linsay, among others, who came out to see the new work I have been creating. Also , I couldn't have done it without the help of my personal peach (AKA Ron Williams) my BFF Dorothy and my wonderful daughter Ingrie. Congratulations to Janie. She was the winner of my free print draw of the WE. It was lovely to connect with her. I think she might just be as zany as me.

I love it when I receive art news from you. Angela has a great fondness for many creatives, but one she loves is the Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara. You might recognize his iconic character of a little girl who at first appearance is quite sweet and then you see her devilish sparkle. I can certainly relate to her vibe. You may think I'm sweet but most would tell you I'm definitely not. YOSHITOMO NARA The Works

https://www.yoshitomonara.org › ...

I'd love to hear who your favourite artist is and why.

In my studio I am creating some really big canvases..about 5 ft x 6 ft. while I still have these walls. The canvas is tacked onto the wall and I'm just going for it. My objective is 'Go big or go home' while we still have this space. End of Jan 2023 is the new end of lease date. Email for a studio visit please.

I attach some photos of my new large canvas, 5x6 ft. called 'Love You Forever'. It's got a great story behind it which didn't evolve until after the painting was finished.

As ever, I thank you so much for your attention and support.

Rock on,

Hello Dear Art Lover    

Play Ball!!!!

Hope you are enjoying this cooler weather as much as I am. When I sent out the previous newsletter, I confess I was not the gal you've come to know as enthusiastic and energetic. Both my knees were giving me grief. I apologize for maybe being a little cranky. Now I can truly sympathize with anyone who suffers from chronic pain. However, I am on the mend and can happily say that I can see the light at the end of this tunnel.

It was so nice to see so many smiling faces last WE at the art show at PegGraham's lovely home. We already have started on plans for next year. Several of my Walking the Dog paintings found new homes. If you would like a commission, I'd be happy to discuss a personal one just for you or a friend.

This WE is going to be an exciting time at theArtwalk in the Squareat shops at Don Mills, 1090 Don Mills Rd. Over 100 talented artists Friday to Sunday are ready to greet you with a variety of art. The weather promises to cooperate, so please come out to support local art. My booth number is 31, very close to last year's location. I've been working on some new pieces of course...so many ideas, so little time.

You may know that I love the northern landscape. I don't have a lot of landscapes in my work, but last year I was so inspired by the rugged shores of Lake Superior at Ney's Provincial Park that I started a diptych (2 paintings end to end). It has taken a whole year to complete but I think I have the essence of what I was feeling from those ancient stones. Have you ever had the urge to lay right on the rocks to absorb their energy? That is what I did that day last August. Communing with prehistoric spirits. It was one of those sacred moments.

I'm attaching the photos of Neys 1 and Neys 2, but you really have to see them in the flesh to appreciate their essence. I do hope you can come to visit them this WE.

Please let me know what adventures you've had this summer. It's been ages and I'm looking forward to connecting with you soon.

Rock on,

Hello Dear Art Lover     

Were you one of the Cool Kids?

At this time of year, I always think of those days just before the new school year starts. I remember the excitement of a new beginning and the hope that this year would be different. So I'll make a confession right here that I was not one of the cool kids. School was a minefield and looking back, I can see that I was trying to fly under the radar. But secretly wanting to be noticed. Hanging out in the art room, that place where the cool kids wouldn't be caught dead, was a haven. It became the place where I did stand out.

How about you? Were you one of the cool kids? Did you hide out in the middle zone hoping to be ignored, not called upon in class, not exposing your lack or abundance of knowledge, just trying to get along?

Things have changed of course and now I'm out there exhibiting my eccentric curiosity, my particular outlook on life with my art and rejoicing when someone gets my viewpoint, my angle on the connections of our humanity.

Unfortunately summer fun is over, but I have a great line up to start this new fall season.
There are 2 art shows you can come to see in Sept. The first is in the welcoming home of Peg Graham. She turns her home into an art gallery fundraiser with a variety of artists and artisans. It's a two day event and always a fun time. I hope you can make it. She's near Kingston Rd and Warden. The dates are Sat Sept 10 and Sun Sept 11, 11am to 6 pm. I've attached the flyer.

Next up is the second Artist Network outdoor show for me this year at the Shops at Don Mills, Lawrence and Don Mills. Over 100 artists will be showcasing their unique styles. I will have some new works in this show. Please pray for sunshine. www.artwalk.square for more details. Fri, Sept 16,3-8pm, Sat, Sept 17, 10-7pm, Sun, Sept 18, 11-5pm.

SPOILER ALERT....GIFTS FOR THE SOULis returning on Sat Nov 26, so please mark your calendar now for this popular event.

To start the new year off, the WINNER of this month's free print is Marianna. Congratulations. I'll be sending you an email to request your address.

This summer, I had the privilege of sharing my love of the great north with my grandsons as they discovered swimming in Lake Superior, hunting for amethyst, and fishing. (Fox caught his first fish this year)
And sauna too, of course. I hope your summer had some once in a lifetime experiences too.

I hope you noticed my new name for this newsletter.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support. It means a lot.

Hello Dear Art Lover        

And the Living' is Easy

Finally it's summertime...I hope your livin' will be easy. Fun times with friends and family, BBQs, picnics, swimming perhaps. All those relaxed things we like to do when the warm weather hits. I'll be spending a good chunk of time up in paradise (aka Thunder Bay) This year I am looking forward to having my grandsons and daughters join me. We'll be exploring canyons, zip lining, hiking, swimming and as always, lots of sauna followed by the refreshing dips into Lake Superior.  I can hardly wait!

As well, I've decided to take a break from the business side of my art career. So you'll have to wait til September for another exciting edition of the Living Artfully newsletter. You know how I get inspired from a good dose of the north country.

This past 4 weeks have been a whirlwind of art fairs. I've never done so many (3) in such a short time span. Previously, I had sworn off the outdoor shows, but I can attest that it actually energized me and helped me to focus on my path. There were many wonderful conversations with new friends and we were lucky that the weather cooperated quite well...despite that very windy Saturday last. I was lucky  my tent didn't fly away and all the art stayed on the walls. 

CONGRATULATIONS to Ardith and Joy for being the winners of a free print by visiting my booth at the Rosedale Artfair and the Riverdale Artwalk. 

CONGRATULATIONS to Doug for winning this second draw of the month from my newsletter. I'll send a message for your address.

Thanks also for all the help I had in setting up and taking down the booths and for hanging out with me. Thanks to the ever patient peach, AKA husband Ron, Lise, Dorothy, Hilja, Angela, Steven, Nancy, Sandra, Mina and Sam. 

Of course, I must thank all the wonderful people who came and talked art with me. It was so much fun to share the stories of how my art works came into being. Luckily I was able to hang the painting that Bill and I had so much fun creating. It's a showstopper as you can see.

This is the last newsletter of the season. I'll see you in September and I hope you have a wonderful summer. My Instagram will be less active, but I'm sure I'll have something to show you. Please watch next week's last Live IG of Living Artfully with Gail on Thursday at 1pm. Season 2 will start in September.

I'm attaching some fun shots from the Riverdale Artwalk. If your'e desperate for a studio visit that can always be arranged. 

Rock on,

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
