Spring is here, blossoms are blooming and we are in the midst of a new Gallery adventure!

Greetings everyone!

It's been quite the April,....actually it's been quite the year!  I would never have thought at the beginning of last month that we would be moving next door to Art and Soul Studio/Gallery and opening Art and Soul Gallery!

We have decided to use the space we share with friends.  It has been sitting without full term tenants since last August so we thought we would take the opportunity to move our collective gallery there.

And so it is with mixed feelings that we say goodbye to our space at Gallery 109 on 4th Avenue!  It was a great year, a great space and we will certainly miss our neighbours there!

On June 1st, however, I know I will be equally excited to share the new Art and Soul Gallery with our friends and customers.

All the details are on the new website that I am attaching!

We are still talking to some more artists about joining us, and we have begun the work of painting interior spaces and getting the grounds all perky for spring and summer!  We look forward to using the outdoor spaces here as well, so keep your eyes open for some "outdoor" shows as well!

Can't wait to see you there!

Do come for our opening, if you can, and bring a friend!

Happy spring.....

Annie

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

And winter seems to be back again.  It's been a long time since I have made an entry and thought it was high time to let you know what is new around here!

This year started off with me joining some friends and making a trek down to San Jose Del Cabo, (Baja Penninsula) for a month-long art trip.  I really enjoyed attending the Thursday Art walks, meeting lots of artists,  locals and Canadians!  There was lots of time to do some painting, exploring, beach walking, ....and more painting.

And now I am back, and this past week I was a guest playdate teacher for our local calligraphy guild, High River United Calligraphers,  and a guest teacher for our local school's Activity Day.  Last night I attended a wonderful Student Art Show here in town, and today I sat at Gallery 109.  It's hard to believe that that began almost a year ago.  It's been a busy month so far!

If you haven't been down to Gallery 109 yet, do come by when the weather gets nicer and visit us!  We are open Wednesday to Saturday from noon to 5:00 pm, and Sunday from 1:00 - 4:00 pm.  Soon we will be going back to our summer hours (open on Mondays and Tuesdays again)

The address of the gallery is:
109 - 4th Avenue SW
High River, Alberta

We would LOVE to see you there!

In the meantime I am about to announce some new courses (workshops) and my Open Studio Days.  For more information you can check in at my new website below.


I'll get back here soon and post some new paintings and announce some upcoming events!

Here's to living a creative life!

Cheers.

Annie
