I have two pieces in Forest City Gallery’s “Synthesis” members’ show which opens Nov. 15 from 7 to 9 pm and runs to Dec. 12. I have six pieces in the St. Thomas-Elgin Public Art Center’s annual miniature show which runs Nov. 15 to Dec. 19. Finally, I just took eight pieces into Museum London’s Shop. Shown is “Cardinal Glory” a coloured pencil piece that is currently roosting at Museum London.

Drawing Colour Plus

I have three pieces in “Drawing Colour,” June 28 to August 1, 2025 at the Ingersoll Creative Arts Center including “Round Robin.” This exhibit is devoted to Canadian coloured pencil. Participating artists include myself, fellow Londoners Cathy Burgoyne, Susan Florian, and Ana Tirolese, Woodstock resident Margaret Trapnell, and, from further afield, Jackie Gallagher (Etobicoke), Laura Steels Hitchcock (Meaford), Duff Jennings (Sault Ste. Marie), Nola McConnan (Toronto), and Bonnie Sheckter (Toronto). I’ve been working in coloured pencil for over 20 years. I love it as an artistic medium, because it allows for precision, versatility, and ease of use. Traditionally, in galleries and in museums, works on paper have been eclipsed by works on canvas. The root reason – paper was fragile and materials were unstable. With continuing advances in the manufacture of artist materials and ongoing artist exploration of surfaces, this is no longer true. This exhibition gives coloured pencil work the exposure it deserves. Of course, seeing is believing. https://www.creativeartscentre.com/. Here is a link to a video created by Ana M. B. Tirolese: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxmRcblhLiU

Welcome to my updated website.

It’s half-way through 2024. After retiring in February, I find myself so busy I don’t know how I ever managed to teach full-time. In May, I participated in the 49th annual Lambeth Art Association show and sale (https://www.lambethart.com/). In June. I donated two pieces to Ingersoll Creative Arts Centre’s Chicken Challenge silent auction fundraiser (https://creativeartscentre.com). I also placed three pieces in the gift shop. Also in June, I had three pieces accepted in the Art Gallery of Lambeth’s, cleverly titled, “Little Black Frame” juried show and sale (https://www.artgalleryoflambeth.com). This show continues on to the end of July.

I am active in the Gallery Painting Group’s weekly paint outs. Drawing rather than painting of course. I have a couple of pieces on the go – a large-horned ram and a killdeer – that are destined for the GPG’s October show and sale. ( https://www.gallerypaintinggroup.com/ )
