Welcome to my blog and first post

I am so happy to welcome you to "Time for Art". I hope to share my new paintings with you and the thoughts behind them. I also hope that you will view the gallery and comment on the paintings there.  I have had a very inspirational July- a trip to Scandinavia and the Baltic which will yield many resources for great paintings, including a trip to the Hermitage with amazing art, from Rembrandt to Picasso.I also visited to the McMichael Gallery of Canadian Art in Kleinburg, which has a current exhibit of  photos taken of the location where many of the paintings of the Group of Seven,  were actually done. As always, a visit to the Outdoor Art Exhibition in Nathan Phillips Square "kicks you up a notch" in terms of your next artistic efforts.

I participated in an art exhibition at the Mackay House in Unionville in July, as part of the North York Visual Artists.www.nyva.ca/ and  I have two paintings exhibited at the Etobicoke Civic Centre as part of the Willowdale Group of artists. www.willowdaleartists.com/
 Check out my "waiting for painting inspiration" with a blank frame--- a photo on the grounds of the McMichael Gallery.

This is awesome! Wonderful to be able to see your work and read your related thoughts.

The images that have a subtextual narrative resonate the most with me.

Kai pai!

Hi Anne, Pat and I looked at your new blog last night and were impressed, both with the format and also the quality of your artwork. You are obviously getting a kick out of your painting. Keep up the good work.
