PAW #9 :: “Lumineux”
Posted on March 1, 2008
I finally competed this still life after two months of work and am including it into my Painting A Week. I have to say it has been one of the hardest to date due to all the glass. The dark blue glass was easy compared to the clear glass. In the end it all come together for a great composition.
I have entered this piece into a juried show with the FCA that will display in April. I am sure the competition will be steep, but I still have my hopes up.

Federation of Canadian Artist (FCA) & Exhibit Entry
Posted on November 7, 2007
It has been a couple of exciting weeks. First Dianna’s workshop that taught me so much about pastels. Then, with Dianna’s guidance, I was juried into the Federation of Canadian Artists.
More than anything it gives a feeling of being part of the artists community instead of just being a part time artist. I hope I can really make use of the membership.
I entered three paintings into a juried show called "Red & Gold". All mediums are accepted, the only caveat is that the painting must contain red or gold or both. A pretty easy requirement. So as you can imagine I have entered the candy apple, now officially titled "Luscious".
The two others are "Desire" and "One Voice". I will post a follow up on whether or not any of the three gets accepted.
