Well I am busy trying to get ready for yet another wholesale show. I am in the By Hand section of the Vancouver Gift Show March 12-14th. I was hoping to have another product by now, I would like to create prints or some other product based on my artwork but I dont seem to find the time. I have managed to create some new designs for my Canned Art Line and I guess that will have to do for now.
I continue to pursue my main passion-painting, athough I usually only have time to paint in brief intervals, small amounts during my classes and a couple of hours during the open painting sessions at the Vancouver Island College of Art. I am currently working on several, who knows if I will ever finish any single one. I am going back and forth between acrylics and watercolors [mixed with mixed media] Most have some type of imagery attached but I am having some fun with abstracts as well. I will post some photos when I can.
I have several classes coming up. Expressions in Watercolor and Mixed Media at the end of March is the first one. I fear it will be cancelled however, I dont have enough sign ups and time is getting close. If that one doesnt go I also have Experimental Acrylics and Absolute Beginner Painting 2 in April. One of them at least will probably run. If anyone is interested they should check out www.Islandblue.com
