It has been a busy month for me art wise which is a wonderful change from last year.  

Collaboration 

I was contacted by a company called Banu Magnifigue inquiring if I would like to consider collaborating with them to put my art on clothing.. to be honest I  tend to ignore these requests but I looked up information about this company and felt it was a good fit. -- So I am very excited to announce my new collaboration @Banu_Magnifique for 2023 International Women's day: a new Canadian fashion line that works with artists and transforms art into ecofriendly chiffon scarves. With vibrant designs, the goal is to support artists, inspire positivity and improve mental well-being. On top of that, 2% of the proceeds goes to Anxiety Canada.

Statement on the International Women's day Collection

About Our International Women’s Day Collection

This International Women's Day holds even greater significance in light of the current global issues impacting women. From the women-led revolution in Iran, to the erosion of reproductive rights in the United States and the restriction of education opportunities for women in Afghanistan, it is clear that the fight for gender equality and women's rights is far from over. To commemorate this important day, we have created a limited edition collection of artwork that reflects the artist's perspective on women in an uplifting and positive manner. The collection is intended to inspire and empower.

 

 

New paintings 

As I mentioned I have busy painting again and have added a number of new painting to this website - some new ones to my tabletop series, some new abstracts and a couple of new figures. Today I finished the painting below - took me quite awhile as it is large and I kept changing things up. Let me know what you think. It is called " Red, white or Rose'?

FCA Award

A new Show started at the FCA Gallery last week the "Shape and Form Show" My painting called "Holy Cow!" won First Prize and it apparently sold before the show opened -- Yahoo it can't get better than that! The show will continues to the end of this week.  www.artists.ca

That's it for now - wishing you all a lovely spring.  Thanks Linda
