Mary’s Garden Tour

….neighbour Mary was selected to be part of this year’s Long Branch Garden Tour

Mary was delighted to be part of this year’s garden tour in the neighbourhood. For years she put forth a plan for her perfect garden and in the final weeks before the tour she worked hard to put the finishing touches on it. I was happy to do my part and gave St. Francis at new coat of paint.

On Saturday the signs went up around the neighbourhood indicating which homes were part of the tour. There were five gardens within walking distance of my house and I checked them all out. Not only did I get some wonderful ideas for my own garden but I actually met the gardeners who were also neighbours. I can now put names to houses that opened their gardens for the tour.

The following photos are all from Mary’s garden:

Opening Reception for Our Group Art Show

Saturday was the official opening reception for Artist’s Choice at WAAC

Last week I helped install this wonderful show. There were close to 90 pieces of art that needed to be hung. The installation team worked really well together and after about five hours all the pieces found a new home in the Dignam Gallery at WAAC.

On Saturday I went to the gallery to gallery sit from 11:00 to 1:00 and then the reception took place from 1:00 to 4:00. The turnout was amazing and I spoke to many visitors who asked about my art. Here are some of the highlights of the day.
