I’ve been a little delinquent on the blogging front lately because my brain fell out. Meanwhile, life has continued to unravel as life does, and now I’ve got a bit of a backlog of things to blog about. For example. Last night GC and I went to Paul Dewar’s art auction for Haiti at the Cube [...] We went to Everybody’s Art Show at Irene’s Pub last night. I love the all-inclusive concept: everybody is invited to create and donate art for this event. Everybody! So for weeks ahead of time, artists and non-artists alike are busy making art for the main event, which is a silent auction. Most, but not all, of [...] Wooden cut-out art for children in the back room of the CUBE Gallery GC and I went to my favourite art show of the year yesterday: Great Big Smalls, at the Cube Gallery. It’s amazing how much little wee art can be packed in there. We actually went during the day, hours before the vernissage, because [...] It was a busy, busy weekend, including a brief trip to Montreal, the TimeRaisers event on Saturday night, and the Vintage Clothing Sale on Sunday, with knitting, novel-writing, novel-reading and breakfast eating crammed into random little pockets of time. TimeRaiser was even better this year than last, because they simplified and streamlined the whole thing. It’s [...] Lying on the couch all the time – reading, writing, and knitting – is wonderful in its own way, but sometimes I have this burning need to go out and do something else, just to keep it wonderful. Yesterday we did the Perth Autumn Studio Tour. It’s on today and tomorrow too, if you’re [...] Here are a couple of yummy little tidbits of upcoming fun. Burlesque Life Drawing Comes to Ottawa! Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School is the little New York [...] Garrie Bea Joyce’s tools We spent much of Sunday visiting artists on the West End Studio Tour. (It’s on again next weekend, in case you missed it.) We started at Garrie Bea Joyce’s studio because she was in our mixed media art course last year. Garrie was light years ahead of the rest of us. [...] GC and I did the Catwalk on Sunday. The Centretown Art Tour. You get to visit 11 artists in their homes/studios. Artists have such interesting homes. Mostly trippy little apartments with lots of light and well-painted walls with good art on them. I actually started to miss apartment living. We started with Meaghan Haughian because she’s [...] When I said it was going to be a good week, I forgot to factor in the fact that because I’m having surgery on Thursday, I have to stop taking some of my meds beforehand. Something to do with blood thinning and internal bleeding; the nurses were very stern about it. Yesterday was my first [...] Sometimes I like to do art on the living room floor instead of in my art room. It feels more like playing when you do it on the floor. Of course it takes a few minutes to get set up. As you can see from this picture, I gathered all my supplies, and I took [...] |
