Strata Gallery

I am very pleased to announce that my artwork is now being carried by Strata Gallery near lovely Elora, Ontario.  Strata Gallery, formerly of downtown Elora, reopened in a new location in the old Salem schoolhouse on March 13th, 2015.

The owner Jo Lomas has done a wonderful job cleaning up the historic one-room school, it is an absolutely stunning building, perfect for an art gallery.  The schoolhouse is a very prominent architectural landmark, with the advantage over downtown Elora of having ample parking.   Located in Salem at the intersection of Wellington Roads 7 and 18 (which turns into Northfield Drive in Waterloo) it is a gateway into the little village of Elora.

I am delighted to be showing work along side an incredibly talented roster of local artists including Lauren Judge, Ryan Price, Ivano Stocco, and Rick Worthington.   Jo Lomas is a pleasure to meet, she is incredibly friendly and helpful.

Strata is open Tuesday to Friday 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m., and holiday Mondays as well. For more information on the gallery and artists see www.stratagallery.com or the Facebook page.

Great people write great blogs

I am very fortunate to have been mentioned in a few different blogs recently.

If you are located in Toronto, and you are looking for artwork, I recommend visiting Canvas Gallery.  I dropped off a stack of work there this week.  You can view the pieces I have available there on their website or blog:

I also noticed (well after the fact) that Darin White posted a lovely review of my November 2014 show at the Rotunda Gallery at the City of Kitchener in his Make Bright blog.  Darin takes amazing photographs and conducts informative interviews then writes excellent posts about current arts and creative events in the Waterloo region.
