For the first time in almost 2 years, the ArtsPay Annual Show was an in person experience that was memorable and exciting. Thanks to all those who stopped by, chatted and showed appreciation for my art. Especially appreciative to those who took home cards, prints and framed art.
Of particular interest was ‘All In’, telling the story of ice fishers at Bannister Lake, between Ayr and Paris, ON off Highway 24A. I learned a lot about the patient art of ice fishing, and someone told me that the scene reminded her of home in Newfoundland so she wanted to send a print to her mom who is “away”.
If I doubted the power of art, I was reassured of the way art connects.
