October is Arts Month is a very successful initiative started a few years ago to promote art in Northumberland County. I usually teach a few workshops at The Gates in Brighton. The workshops are subsidised by the Brighton Arts Council, so it is a great time to sign up for a very inexpensive workshop. I am especially excited about my Encaustic workshop this year since the weekend before (coming right up), I am attending a two day Encaustic seminar with a local Encaustic artist.

My September show at The Blue House in Brighton wrapped up. As nice as it is to cover up the nails in my walls at home it was great to see my work in a beautiful well lit setting. The Blue House is a lovingly restored Queen Anne house on Main St in Brighton, ON with a gift shop downstairs and the Gallery upstairs.
Thanks to everyone that made a point of visiting and to those who purchased a piece of art, more thanks and Enjoy! And a thank you to my host, Anna.
