There are art pieces that I consider ‘exquisite’ because they speak to me. They can be large or small, refined or bold and realistic or abstract. The following pieces from our most recent art show at WAAC, From Nature to Abstraction, I find ‘exquisite.
RDP Monday – Wallpaper
…thanks to RDP for today’s prompt https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2022/10/17/rdp-monday-wallpaper/
Before COVID, one of the last restaurants that I visited in the Junction Triangle had the entire restaurant ‘papered’ with old wine crates.
Garden Art in Community Gardens
…thanks to Marsha for hosting PPAC https://alwayswrite.blog/2022/10/14/ppac-67-portland-international-rose-test-garden/
Close to where a dear friend lives I witnessed what happens when a community comes together to create gardens on land that would normally be ignored. Some of the gardens are pollinator gardens and others have bird houses to attract birds. The schools have become involved by encouraging children to paint signs and make sculptures that have been carefully placed among the plants.

Textures in Art – October 11, 2022
…introducing some close-ups of the textures from the show Nature to Abstraction
There are many great pieces of art in the most recent show at WAAC but some have some outstanding visual textures.
Sunday Trees – October 9, 2022
…trees in the city are just starting to turn compared to trees further north
Trees along Philosophers’ Walk at the University of Toronto
The Last Night of Lawn Bowling
….what a great season
This was the first year, since 2020 where we were able to play a full season and with fewer restrictions. Many of us, including myself, had the experience of playing in tournaments with other clubs and with the addition of 30 new members in our club alone we made a lot of new friends.
Thursday evening was our last opportunity to play. It was cold and windy but enough members came out to play on three rinks. Today the city came by and laid a layer of sand to the pitch which prevents us from playing into next week. In a couple of weeks we will have one more opportunity to get together and share a meal at a local restaurant.
