can you spot me ten bucks?

SOLD

$60 - 5x7"original watercolour painting with 8x10"mat.

This title, which my sister came up with, cracks me up. 

It was wonderful to create dark colourful blobs with soft and hard edges, sometimes on dry paper, sometimes on wet, when painting this spotted friend. The spots are blue, brown and purple. 

Lately I've been drawing wild cats. Here are some lioness'.

Portraits at Todmorden Mills Gallery

The Don Valley Art Club show at Todmorden Mills Gallery ends this weekend. Last chance. ; ) 

We spent our Sunday portrait session at the Gallery instead of our usual studio. It was wonderful and challenging to be in this new setting. The space includes an auditorium so, during intermission, many of the audience members wandered past us as we plugged away at our 25 minute portrait sessions. It was great to combine all the arts together. The Don Valley Art Club is my faaaaaavourite art group in Toronto!

Rudolph Cards!

4 handpainted cards with 4 envelopes for $20!

Drawn with pen and painted with watercolour, each 4x5"Rudolph card is one of a kind. I've been painting these cards for 3 years now and selling them at annual X-mas art shows. This year I decided to offer them online.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Toronto East Rotary Arts and Crafts Show 2017

Yesterday was the 6th Toronto East Rotary Arts and Crafts Sale show for me, and the 8th running. 
Here's my table with many small original watercolours and my one-long-line drawings in colourful frames.

Also, me with my lucky Koala pin on!

The one-long-line drawings had a dog walking theme this year. I start with a big dot and then see where the line takes me.

Also, my hand drawn cards and my annual Rudolph Cards

 

People are always thrilled by the concept of the one-long-line drawings so they, and Rudolph, did well. Otherwise.... a slow show this year. Nonetheless, I'm already looking forward to next year's show. : )

Dogs and Cats and Shows!

Here are a few pages I just finished in my sketchbook. ; )

I've been crazy busy preparing for the Don Valley Art Club Show, which opens this Wednesday, and my Saturday Arts and Crafts Show. However, I always find time for some drawing. 

Here are the show evites again. Hope to see you there!
