Watercolour Demo at Art Central


I am pleased to announce that I was chosen by the Arts Astray team to give a live watercolour demonstration at the Art Central at the First Thursday Event on November 3rd.
You will be able to find me on the upper level from 6pm to 8pm. I will be painting at least two pieces.
Art Central is located at 100, 7th Avenue SW in Calgary; it is home to numerous art galleries and unique shops that together strive to promote new ideas, creativity and enhancing the community's perception of art.
First Thursdays at Art Central are especially fun because they are filled with mini events and deals at almost every shop and gallery. It is a great opportunity to come out, explore the Calgary art scene and meet some new people passionate about arts and crafts.

Sketchbook Project 2012!


Super-excited: I got my Sketchbook Project 2012 Sketchbook today!
This is part of a world-wide project where artists and designers sign up to get one blank sketchbook, work on them for 3 months and send the results back to become part of a traveling exhibition, which later on becomes part of the permanent collection of the Brooklyn Art Library.
 I must say I am a bit intimidated by the first blank page of this sketchbook, but I love this idea and I want to make my sketchbook something very unique. Each artist can pick a theme for the sketchbook online, before ordering it. I played it safe by picking "This is a Sketchbook" as the main theme, just because I am very happy with the fact that I actually have a sketchbook again!
If you are interested in this project, go to The Sketchbook Project Website and register: anyone can be part of it and you have until Oct. 31, 2011 for the registration. I highly recommend it as a fun outlet for some creativity and a way to let the world know about your talent.
