Fun paintings at the Christmas Store

 I hope to create more of these fun pieces in the future!  I chose interesting photos of food that I like and think others might like too.  You can see them at the Saugeen Artists Guild pop-up Christmas Store in Hanover which is open until December 23 2023.  They are 8 x 8 inches each.  And mouth-watering!

The Saugeen Artists' Christmas Store is open!

 For two months this pop-up store gives folks near and far an opportunity to purchase unique, handmade items.  Our inventory includes paintings, of course, but also woodworking, jewelry, leather pieces, pottery, ornaments, purses, and lots of cards!  In November we're open from  Wednesday to Saturday, and in December you can visit every day of the week.  Hours are 10:00 to 5:00 except for Sunday, 1:00 to 4:00.  Come and meet the artists on duty!


  Here is what our store looks like this year:

A different style for me........

 At my August course in London with Cheryl O Art, I did some fun experimenting with a new style!  These are two that came out of that course, which are quite unusual for me, but I thoroughly enjoyed working on something new.   They are a stylized and abstracted view of landscapes, with bright and sometimes unusual colours.  These are now on display at the Saugeen Artists Guild's Christmas pop-up store, which "materializes" in Hanover every year, after a long busy week setting it up, and runs from November 3 until December 23.  There are 20 artists with varied products, all unique and handmade.  You can find us (and many of my paintings) at 189 10th St. Hanover.
