Lens Artists Photo Challenge – Creepy
…thanks to Leya for hosting this week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge
Many of these photos were taken at art galleries in London, England and here in Toronto. Others are from the Toronto zoo and from the Highgate Cemetery in London. The one of my son-in-law is a selfie he took because he knew he was being followed by that fox. Being followed by a fox is the creepy part for me not my son-in-law.
Whimsical Quilts

I loved these fun quilts.
Getting Ready for an Art Show
…small gems
Last year I joined the Women’s Art Association of Canada. Actually I won a membership for a year and this year I extended the membership for another year. I was really hoping that if I belonged to a group like this I would be inspired to paint more. Unfortunately circumstances beyond my control made finding time to paint difficult.
Despite these time constraints I still managed to find some time to paint ‘small’. Often my inspiration came from on-line classes, especially Carla Sonheim’s classes. Every year at WAAC (Women’s Art Association of Canada) a special show just before Christmas is featured in the large gallery called ‘Small Gems’. Members are encouraged to submit small pieces, no larger than 48″ around the perimeter, framed. Also, the pieces can be sold for no more than $200.00.
This year I managed to complete four small pieces. Two I made earlier in the year and the last two I started and finished last week. You may have already seen the first two but they are now framed.
The next two were inspired by Carla Sonheim’s Flower Crazy 2 class. I love working with my Pilot Pens over a watercolour background.
Thanks Becky for the End of the Line

Rainbow of Skulls – Day 10
,,,thanks to Granny Shot It for hosting the Eleven Days of Hallowe’en Challenge
Hallowe’en decorations are everywhere. Not sure if this display at the art show was there to commemorate Hallowe’en or an art piece meant for anytime of year.
