Organizing art from last year: #1

So far 2013 has brought me...cleaning: the reorganizing and general clutter riddance will hopefully help with the creative flow. After some major furniture moving I've migrated to my computer and realized that I should also organize my photo albums!  So, here is a picture I found of my work in progress for the Annual Figureworks Awards Show back in November/December 2012.

For this work I went back to working on mylar. (Click to enlarge)  The drawing is done in graphite and a small amount of acrylic paint.
Figureworks is an amazing organization here in Ottawa.  They have annual juried award shows, this was my second time participating and my greatest impression is how well they treat their artists.  For more information visit: http://figureworks.org/

Happy New Year!


Happy New Year everyone! I want to thank everyone for your support this past year. Particularly to those who gave me much needed extra pushes in confidence. And as equally important, thank-you to those who let me step back and re-focus.

This year I taught at the same art school I did my training in, organized more art events, had a hand in environmental campaigns dear to my heart, and met new amazing and creative friends along the way!

2013 is just starting, but I am in the works to making it the most creative year yet! I hope you can join me in all this fun!
