My gallery in Toronto, Studio Vogue
will close at the end of this month,
and today I went to thank Joyce
Fournier, who has been a wonderful
gallery director for me.  Joyce knows
and likes my work and has treated me
very well in the years I've shown with
her.

I was trying to decide what to show
in May at the Amsterdam Whitney
Gallery and what to show at another
exhibition this fall in Europe.  Joyce
was very helpful and we snacked on
delicious wee cakes.  Yum.  I will
miss Joyce, her husband Paul, and their
expertise at hanging a show and hosting
an opening so much.

Have a loving-your-galleries day.

Hi Wendy,

Thank you so much. I am pleased with the cloud paintings, and sad to lose Joyce and her gallery.
