Whirlwind of wonderful art weekend!


Me with my great friend the wonderful artist -- Georgia Fullerton.
I'm holding the painting "Happiness" -- which I bought at the Full Fine
Art Collection and @homerbrowncollection pop up show
at 876 Dundas Street West yesterday.What could be more
appropriate? I love this painting, and Georgia always makes me
feel happy! So much fun at her show yesterday!

We were so lucky to get to the Artist Project on Friday night.  See
my last blog to see some of the artists' work and click their links.
Our Saturdays are packed without anything out of the ordinary,
but yesterday we went straight from visiting our favourite farmer
at the Brickworks Farmer's market, to the pop up show at 876 Dundas
Street West.  The show was only on for one day, and I wish
it had gone on for longer so I could send you there. The work
was gorgeous. 

My dear friend, and wonderful artist Georgia Fullerton 
exhibited some lovely pieces with her friend Homer Brown.  Homer's
work was also magnifient.  Homer does both paintings and ceramics.
Georgia was displaying one painting that I'd wanted for awhile, so I bought it.

When you go to art shows and see your friends' work, it is such a positive
charge.  For visual people, seeing what artists do is so inspiring.  It makes
 us understand why we paint, and also want to do more.  We are part of an
incredible community of creative people. 

Have a getting out to the art shows day!
