At last…
… WordPress is finally giving me the email notifications for comments and contact messages properly. My apologies to anyone who tried recently to comment or contact and had difficulties.
The arts are essential to any complete national life. The State owes it to itself to sustain and encourage them…. Ill fares the race which fails to salute the arts with the reverence and delight which are their due.

I now have booths for all my upcoming shows
At long last, I have the booth numbers for all my upcoming shows this summer. At The New Art Festival in Ottawa this weekend (June 21 & 22), I’m in booth 23, right by the entrance at Bank and Patterson. If you on the path from Bank, take the […]

The Artist Project 2014
I’m now back from The Artist Project 2014, a four-day art fair at Exhibition Place in Toronto, Ontario. A pretty tiring affair that draws in quite a large crowd, but I made lots of contacts and renewed some old contacts. I had on display my North of Superior series, […]
