Sooke Fine Art Show 2014

I was notified this morning that two of my pieces have been accepted into the Sooke Fine Art Show for 2014. Good Wood and Vortex will be on display at the exhibition July 25 to August 4. The show and sale is the biggest juried exhibition on Vancouver Island. My pieces were selected by the jurors out of the 1400 entries that were submitted. Come out to Sooke and enjoy the wide variety paintings, sculpture, pottery, jewelery and other items chosen.

Toronto Visit

I recently visited Toronto and got the chance to see where my first tryptich was installed. Bill Norgate, the owner of the piece is planning to change the wall colour and raise the paintings up a bit higher. This will lessen the blocking of the paintings by the equipment in his showroom. The wall colour change will bring some more warmth into the showroom space by picking up a colour from the tryptich. I really enjoyed meeting with Bill and having a chance to provide a little input in the hanging of this piece. Thanks again to my brother Norm for arranging the meeting and the tremendous hospitality shown by Norm, Helen, their daughter Linda, and Clive and my sister Linda. Cheers to all our friends new and old!

Size & Perspective

This will give you more of an idea of the size of the triptych. I shot this this morning at 7am prior to starting to work on the detail work that has to be done. As you can see it almost covers the entire end of our house. It has been a juggling act moving and working on each canvas because my work space is only 10'x10'.
