Trade Show Art Walk

This year's artworks are incredible! I am so happy to be able to put them on display at the St. Albert 'Spring into Spring' Trade Show. There are over 50 and still counting as the last ones trickle in the studio door. The pegboard has been hauled out from the back storage area (we need to update to something half as heavy for next year!) the paperwork is almost finished ( brochures, business cards, handouts etc) and I have 'the men' in place to help build the booth display.

Our faithful volunteers are signed up- this should be a fun and exciting weekend! I really enjoy showing the unbelieving public what fantastic art our students are creating. It is surprising how many students started after seeing us at the Trade Show. We are the ONLY ART WALK FOR THE OVER 10,000 PEOPLE THAT COME TO THE TRADE SHOW! We are going to WOW them! Check out last years set up....


Our school isn't just about learning a timeless technique-it's about the support and encouragment that the students offer each other. The ultimate goal of an art school is to build a community of artists that thrives and inspires many more to push past their limits and discover what beautiful things can be at the end of their brushes. For me, having the opportunity to share the world of art with you has been a priviledge!

I can hardly wait for the Spring session to begin...
