Daniel Anaka posing for his
portrait. He was joined
by my cat Fiona, and dog
Sally. They loved him.
They didn't want to leave.
Some of the most exciting shows I ever participated in were run by
Daniel Anaka as curator at the old Super Wonder Gallery on Bloor
Street. Daniel has endless good ideas about shows -- themes,
entertainment -- audience participation. And Daniel really cares about
being fair to artists. I was writing to the artist Gaya Kairos the other day,
and we were both missing those shows. They were always so much fun.

I'm putting the portrait I did of Daniel on the blog tonight. He is
one of the funniest, kindest people I know, but he posed in a very
serious manner for his portrait.
Thank you Daniel. You are an inspiring curator and artist. When
this whole COVID thing is over, I hope that you get a gallery
space, and that the excellent art shows and fun can start again.
Have a loving your life day.
Thank you Barbara for the lovely words and your inspiring post. You're quite fun yourself :). I hope you have an incredible day!

It has been a great day because it rained and all the trees in my neighbourhood needed it.
Such amazingly beautiful rain.
Stay healthy.
