I am so happy to have my Hamilton prints and postcards with a new retailer..... THE HAMILTON STORE: They are celebrating their 3 year anniversary this week. I am a big fan of the store, and of Hamilton. If you are a regular reader here, you know that already! But I really do love this store - partially because the owner is spectacularly lovely and charming! One of the things that is special about The Hamilton Store, is the curation of the products. Almost everything is made by local people, and THAT is amazing! There is a hugely diverse line up of things....from condiments to art!
This is the perfect store for your holiday gifts! Whether you know someone in Hamilton, or ARE someone from Hamilton, there is going to be a great gift (or gift to self)! I LOVE the city, I have a bunch of relatives and friends that live there.....and they MUST go down to The Hamilton Store at 165 James Street North, and pick up something special!! Also check them out on the interwebs: The Hamilton Store Website on their Facebook page and on Twitter! Thanks guys!!!!!

It had been almost a MONTH since I have posted here. Those of you who follow me on Facebook and INSTAGRAM know why. And hey.....why aren't YOU following me on Instagram? I'm hella interesting! (See - I am using young people speak!!!) Anyways, THIS is what I have been up to.... It is a HUGE mural project that I have been painting with (and for) Cindy Scaife (her design!). The big underpass was commissioned by the City of Toronto and the stART Program. Which is AWESOME. So gallons and gallons of paint, and a month later...we are DONE!!! I was really happy with the final look....and so was Cindy. I am super grateful that I have such a talented friend that would trust me to paint with her! I will post photos and a video of the whole mural SOON! You also missed me putting up my work at The Pearl Diver restaurant: YES....it does look amazing! Go down until the end of December to see this work in person!! Go for the oysters, stay for the art! The Pearl Diver is at 100 Adelaide St E, Toronto! You also missed me announcing all the info for my upcoming showing at the One of A Kind Christmas Show. But I will dave those deets for another post NEXT WEEK! I also have a new retailer (I will talk about that next week too) and I am going to be installing some work in a coffee shop! (Details also next week!) AAAAND.... I will be doing the last Kensington Market Art Fair this Sunday October 30th from 12pm-7pm. It is gonna be sunny but chilly.....AND YET I still want you to come down and see me.....I will have my prints and postcards! I will also be debuting 3 STUNNING new limited edition Giclees! Now what makes these guys special, is that each one has a bunch of painted embellishments on it to make it slightly different. WHY DO YOU WANT ONE??? Because not only are they STUNNING, they are also nicely priced!! Generally my giclees on canvas are less than 1/3 of the retail prices of my original paintings! So it is a good deal for my work, and each is different....here is a sneak peak... Space Cowgirl, 24" x 36" - this is taken from an older work and I have reworked the composition a bit. I then spent a BUNCH of time repainting the colours and adding some fun additions!
This is available for $550 (plus HST) Transition, 24" x 24", $365 (plus HST) I accidentally ordered the WRONG size, I meant to order the 36" x 36" (which is also available -- you can special order it from me) But it is pretty nice in this size too! FINALLY I have: Decaying Slipper, 40" x 30" - $575 (plus HST) This is a photo reproduction of a piece that hangs in my house. I love it, and thought it would be a great one to share with you guys. Never shown, this one is a real gem! So there you go! I hope you can make it for the last KMAF of the season! THE KENSINGTON MARKET ART FAIR October 30th 12pm to 7pm 77 Nassau St |
