MORE UPDATES!

Hi everyone!

Just thought I would fill you in on current shows and activities that I am involved in...

I have a painting in the OCADU Annual Figure show, on display in the Great Hall from February 7-18, 2011. The opening reception will take place this Thursday, February 10,2011 from 5-7pm.

I have been busy getting ready for "Everything Is Going to Be Alright.Right" group show at Function 13.
The opening reception is this Friday, February 11,2011 from 6-11pm. The exhibit will run from February 11-17,2011.

I recently joined the thesis catalogue committee. We are in the early stages of development on the project. I am really looking forward to end product.

Tongson Chen, (http://tongsonchen.blogspot.com/) one of my thesis peers, is organizing a Drawing and Painting thesis group show in late May or early June. I will continue to post updates about the show over the next few months.

I am working away developing my thesis, and I am in the process of documenting some of my work. I will post the images as soon as possible.

For love, art and music

Please check out this stop motion music video that my boyfriend Alex Leggett made. It is incredibly creative and I wanted to share it with everyone! I know that Alex will go far with his music career, and I don't know anyone else who deserves it more.
I am also very happy to be in this video!

I hope you all enjoy!

"Eat Your Art Out"

I haven't updated my blog in a while, but within the next few months I plan on posting more frequently. I have been working on my thesis this year at OCADU and doing an internship at Propeller Centre for the Visual Arts, on Queen St West since September.

In December Propeller had an edible art event, called "Eat You Art Out." Artists were asked to submit a piece of art, constructed of edible material, which would then be eaten at the event.

I submitted a piece for it, made of fondant.
