The - 10 - Collective Art Show
Enthusiasm with Friends!

Picture

WOW!! Another exciting, crowd-filled show at the Textile Museum in Almonte last weekend. The artists outdid themselves with new work and were kept busy answering questions, wrapping paintings and enjoying the crowds of enthusiastic art lovers on two days that turned out to be sunny and warm.
It was an exciting time for me too. To be associated with these fine artists and to appreciate the many compliments on my own work. It all helps to recharge my batteries and make promises to myself to get back outside with brushes in hand soon as possible!
Of course, it all wouldn't happen with out the capable planning and production talents of artist Eileen Hennemann, who brings professionalism and high energy to the show each year.
I hope to see everyone back next near for another bash.

Manotick Art Association PLEIN AIR PAINTING PROGRAM 2023

I am proud to say that the Manotick Art Association Plein Air Painting Program will begin on the first Thursday of June, which happens to be June 1, 2023. The program continues, each Thursday until the end of September. I am pleased to be in charge once again along with a number of great helpers.
The way it works, is this:  Everyone on my email list will receive an email, a week before the next Thursday painting day, giving the location and driving directions. Everyone is free to attend or not, but usually there are 10 or more attending, depending on the weather. We meet at 9:30 am and finish at 12:00 noon. Before we leave at noon, the artists enjoy  seeing everyone's unfinished work, but it is not obligatory to show your painting. Some bring a lunch and stay on. Some meet at a restaurant.
The locations are less than an hours drive from Manotick, eg Merrickville, Almonte, Hoggs Back. It is a great way to meet other artists and improve your plein air painting skills in any genre.
To register for the program ( you must be an MAA member - manotickart.ca). Just drop me an email at
csprattart@gmail.com.

The Ethel Curry Gallery

The Ethel Curry Gallery has an all new website, listing new and existing artists and activities. Check it out. http://www.ethelcurrygallery.com/

The Ethel Curry Gallery is an important fixture of the Town of Haliburton. It is named after Ethel Curry (1901 - 2000), an important Canadian painter and close friend to several members of the Group of Seven that came to paint in her area. (See Northern Belle, The Life and Times of Haliburton's Ethel Curry by Robert Popple).
My association with the gallery began in 1998, when I was invited to teach watercolours at the Haliburton School of Fine Art  (Sir Sandford Fleming College). I am proud to say that I have been represented by the Ethel Curry Gallery  ever since.
