Creative Adventurez and Findz

I participated in the Orca fundraiser this year with Debbie Amaral's sponsorship which was much appreciated. "Every year, the atrium at Gibsons Public Market fills up with beautiful artwork created by members of our community to raise funds to support the Nicholas Sonntag Tidepools Aquarium (previously Nicholas Sonntag Marine Education Centre)." I painted a swimmer swimming off from Gibsons landing. It was was a lot of fun painting it. Thanks so much for the support Debbie and again appreciate being part of the these community events.  There was a time when we did this as a family for the Salmon Festival and I have many fond memories of those days.

  Friendly Paddle 16x20 Acrylic on Canvas   Present Tense Exhibition is on June to the end of July. There are over 100 artists in many medias. So lucky to be part of such a creative community. My art work is dedicated to the Gibsons Outrigger Canoe Club. I have be learning to paddle with them for the past two years. I have not been paddling due to my vertigo and back pain. I miss it but I am  grateful of the great experience and know I will go when I am stronger. I enjoyed painting the background of the village of Gibsons with the colours. I struggled to get the figure in the outrigger boat.     There was an article in the Coast reporter that mentioned my work. I admit I was a bit insecure about this work. It was challenging for me and was not sure about it. So the positive feedback was much appreciated.
