Old Friend

Old Friend.... for me this is about the certainty or constant(ness) of this tree.  The landscape can change, the seasons, time passes but this tree remains.  This tree speaks to me, and in a way gives me comfort.  There is a knowing in this tree, a steadiness.  I won't say anymore about it because I can communicate better with paint.   :)

This was quite a busy week!  I'm back from Penticton and was able to bring home 4 of my originals and several prints on both canvas and fine art paper.  Now, they are at the frame store getting the finishing touches.

The prints on canvas are stretched onto the appropriate sized frame, and the prints on paper are mounted onto foam board.  I am learning so much about the world of art.  

I am getting all of these prints and cards ready for 2 big events in the next couple months.  The first event is part of the Kamloops Spring Festival and is a "Pop Up Gallery" located at 448 Victoria Street.  I will be there May 22, 4-8pm, and May 23, 24th from 10-4 both days.  There will be 12 artists at this sight and we are all hoping for a good turn out.

Upcoming as well is Art in the Park, July 1st at Riverside Park in Kamloops, The City of Merritt Art Walk (July), and The City of Williams Lake Art Walk (August).  I am looking forward to all of these events and will hopefully have even more paintings by then.

I wanted to express my gratitude for your insightful and engaging article. Your writing is clear and easy to follow, and I appreciated the way you presented your ideas in a thoughtful and organized manner. Your analysis was both thought-provoking and well-researched, and I enjoyed the real-life examples you used to illustrate your points. Your article has provided me with a fresh perspective on the subject matter and has inspired me to think more deeply about this topic.
