…my art has become all consuming
There are only two days left to my art show so things on my blog should be somewhat back to normal after this weekend. Normal? What is that? Here are a few trios for this week’s challenge.
…apologies to all my followers who participate in Thursday Trios
Even though I have always said you can post your trios on any day of the week I’ve always felt that as the host of this challenge I should make every attempt to post my contribution on Thursday. It has been a crazy week. Not only was I super busy installing my art show but I ended up going to two concerts, a reception and a dinner all on the same day which just happened to be Thursday. On Friday I was back at the gallery waiting to meet family members but due to a mix up they didn’t show. They came the next day, Saturday, when I had my official opening reception. A wonderful day that I will talk more about in another post. On Sunday when I did try to post on my blog my photos weren’t transferring over to my computer, my Facebook page had changed and it took me ages to get it back to where I wanted it and I had loads of laundry that I needed to do.
Anyway, I also had to go out and find some trios on Sunday so my contribution this week consists of spring flowers.
If you have any trios to share please copy my link and paste it into your post. I’ll be sure to leave a comment, even if it takes a few days longer.

I love walking through the Colonel Sam Smith Park in South Etobicoke (west end of Toronto) and strolling along the walkways but I also like to take some of the side trails to see where they take me.

It was a beautiful sunny day when we decided to check out the Arboretum. I can’t wait to go back when the leaves come out the flowers come up.
…from dried leaves, curly vines to rough and textures rocks
…now that the weather is warming up there are signs in the yard and neighbourhood that the plants are ready to rise up
…pointing to the moon in the middle of the day
…spring is definitely here
If you have any photos of trios I’d love to see them. Just copy my link and paste it into your post and I’ll get a pingback.
….textures at the Assembly Hall
On my walk yesterday I went further than I have in months. It was a cool but gorgeous day as I made my way over to the Assembly Hall. It was about a 6K walk there and back. When I reached the hall I discovered that there was an art show on display called Herstory. It was put together by a group of Women from the Niagara Women’s Collective (SWFT) showcasing unique stories of women with overlapping experiences.
Some of my favourite pieces were the soft sculptures by Debra Jackson-Jones and Mori McCrae.
I also enjoyed Francie McGlynn’s paintings that included soft woven patches of fabric and hard edged buttons.
For those of you who live close by, the show runs till March 29, 2023 at the Assembly Hall Gallery at 1 Colonel Samuel Smith Park Dr., Toronto, ON.
