Today I got back to work on a group of monochromatic florals Im working on for Moyaboya in Creemore. I cannot wait to get up there with my girlfriends to do a little shopping and visit Senka.

Tag Art Gallery Group Exhibit.....

Starting October 17th I will be exhibiting at Tag Art Gallery in St. Catharines ON. Very much looking forward to having my work in my home town.

empty nest.....

Biggest change in my life.....my kids are gone. They are playing hockey at Ridley College, 16 yrs old ( twins ) and they have flown the coop. I am so happy for my boys simply because they are so happy. Also means their mama can paint all day everyday to help pay for tuition.....xoxoxoxox

is it fall of 2012 already????

Ok.....this may sound incredibly insane but I have been that busy. I'm not going to get into the details of my life....maybe its not that I've been too busy. Maybe I have just had my priorities tossed up in the air lately and they have fallen in a different pattern. I have all of a sudden floated to the top of that priority list and its starting to make sense and feel good. So I will get back to blogging about my life as an artist again because this life has become for front and center. Feels good......

lone birch...

This painting was a struggle, however it turned out to be one of my favorite paintings in the end. Thanks to Sherry for forcing me to come back and finish it even when Id given up. She was right, it took me one hour to complete and I felt so completely satisfied with the results. I think it will go to the gallery in Collingwood later this summer and hopefully someone falls in love with it.

janes was a success

Last Sunday was my 3rd annual show, hosted by Jane and David Thompson. It was a great success, with a portion of the procedes going to the Mark Preece Family House. I am so grateful to all the folks that attended and look forward to next year! My next exhibit will be the beyond the valley tour this fall, dates to be posted on my website www.michelleguitard.net

beyond the valley tour!!!

The tour in Dundas was a great success this past weekend, dont forget to come to my exhibit June 13th ( details on my website ) www.michelleguitard.net under exhibits. Lots of folks passed through and commented on both Stephanies, and my work. I always enjoy the tour for many reasons, the people that come to see my work are always so encouraging and inspiring. I also love to see my tour buddies!!! Elaine, Louise, Anne, Stephanie, we all have so much fun together, looking forward to the fall tour in Oct. Above is a purple tulip I exhibited, it will also be at Janes show in 2 weeks.
