\"\"<\/a>On the last weekend in April, our Artists\u2019 Workshop group will throw open the doors and share an enthusiastic welcome to our Annual Spring Show & Sale.<\/p>\n

I thought I\u2019d share a sneak peek at what you will find in my collection of paintings this year, as well as the general details for the show.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Friendly Faces<\/p><\/div>\n

As many of you know, last year was a tough one with my husband\u2019s advancing illness through the fall and passing in late October.<\/p>\n

Gathering small bouquets from the garden and bringing them to our Monday painting sessions was about all I could manage.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll find a collection of ten 6×8 posies<\/strong> that I created during that time \u2013 pretty florals with simple backgrounds.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Happy Houses Up The Hill<\/p><\/div>\n

Since the new year, I\u2019ve returned to the whimsical villages<\/strong> theme that I started exploring last year. They\u2019re lighthearted, and I needed a little joy and levity in my life.<\/p>\n

Most of the village scenes are sized 10″ x 20″ and mounted on cradle panel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Peace Be With You Japanese Garden<\/p><\/div>\n

Travel sketching<\/strong> was pretty much out of the question last year, given our family situation, but I did flip back through sketchbooks from previous years and harvested a few pieces that you will see presented in the show.<\/p>\n

Some of my works are presented in the traditional way \u2013 matted, and framed under glass. Most are mounted on gallery cradle board with a varnish and wax finish \u2013 no glass required.<\/p>\n

Mine is certainly not the only work to be enjoyed that weekend. At the show you\u2019ll find original works created by all twelve of our members including: Celeste Dumonceaux Delahey, Jean Dudley, Kathleen Slavin, Anne Simmie, Val Miles, Wendy McLeod, Paige Mortenson, Sharron Schoenfeld, Leslie Stadnichuk, Jill Scott, Betty Gibbon, and me.<\/p>\n

We create in a variety of media: acrylic, oil, watercolor, mixed media, ink and watercolor, pastels, glass, and watercolor batik.<\/p>\n

\u2018Passages\u2019 is our theme for 2026<\/strong>. Unique to this year\u2019s show will be a set of 11×14 works featuring twelve different points of view illustrating the \u2018Passages\u2019 theme.<\/p>\n

To further whet your appetite, you’ll find a visual sampler featuring one image from each of our member artists posted at the end of this message.<\/p>\n

The event will be held at Grace-Westminster Church (505 10th<\/sup> St E in Saskatoon)<\/p>\n

\n

Friday, April 24 (5-9)<\/p>\n

Saturday, April 25 (10-5)<\/p>\n

Sunday, April 26 (11-4).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

We hope you will be able to visit us at the show. We so look forward to connecting with you in person.<\/p>\n
