Accepted – Queen West Art Crawl!

Very excited to hear that I got into the Queen West Art Crawl – I am working on a few new pieces and reworking some older ones – increasing the layers and complexity. Located in beautiful Trinity Bellwoods Park, the Outdoor Art Show and Sale features over 250 unique and exciting artists and crafts people, performance artists, buskers, community organizations and food vendors. Queen West Art Crawl first began in 2003 as a one-day festival. In its home base, Queen St W, 5 years later flourished into the signature Outdoor Art Show and Sale (OASS) for the summers’ end.

I included Northern Lights - one of my all time favourites - and After the Storm in my submission. I felt that these were both strong but showed a different level of energy. I also included River #4 - the image that is on my postcards and business cards - seems to be a consistent favourite.
