Today I spent the day packing up my art -- more than 50 pieces, many large
for my solo show opening Saturday between 2 and 5 p.m. at the Heliconian
Hall, 35 Hazelton Ave., Toronto.  

My husband Steven and I packed and then drove through snow and sleet
to pick up a rental van to move the paintings to the show (too many, and
too big for a car. 

Then my son Christopher came and helped us too. What a great team.
Weird weather, and we are almost ready to take the paintings to the show.

Next -- get the treats for guests, look for a dress, and I'm sure there's a 

long list of other tasks before the event.

Love to see you there.

Have a loving your life day.

Super happy with The Happiest View

For quite awhile I've felt that there was something missing in this painting,The Happiest View, and it was the waves.  Yes!

I am a huge fan of water.  Take me to a stream, a pond,  a lake, and best of all the Ocean,

and I am super happy -- no matter what time of year it is.  And I really love crashing waves.  These are mild ones, and this painting will be on view as part of Art of Celebration, my solo show at the Heliconian Club, 35 Hazelton Ave., Toronto, opening this coming Saturday -- April 5, 2025 from 2 - 5 p.m.

Still painting and getting ready.

Have a loving your life day!
