the figurative show I was in before I went to Florence
and Paris -- Daniel Anaka. When I heard that he was
curating an abstract show Rorschach, opening this week, I wanted
to be part of it. The openings are on this Friday November
20th and Saturday, November 21st from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. at
the Super Wonder Gallery, 876 Bloor Street West, just west of
Ossington.

(one of two paintings I'm showing that mirror
each other in the Rorschach show.)
And hurray my paintings have been accepted! I'll be exhibiting
two 3 ft x 4 ft. black and white abstract paintings in the show.
A complete departure for me. Have I been influenced
by the artists I met in Florence? I'd have to say yes,
but more importantly I really like the artists that
Daniel Anaka attracts to his shows, and Daniel's wit,
sense of humour and no nonsense, honest approach. Plus
he throws a super great party, and we artists and collectors
need that.
The group Tokka with Dr. Eugene Draw, famous
electronic violinist, will be playing at the openings,
on Friday and Saturday night.
Have I gone abstract? No -- not forever. I am
just adding that possibility to my affection for
portraits, still life, and landscape. And for me
it's been a happy addition.
Come and see! I know you'll enjoy yourself.
Have a celebrating art day!
