I was so thrilled to be one of 49 finalists in the Salt Spring National Art Prize 2017 exhibit at Mahon Hall in Ganges on Salt Spring Island this fall. Over 2100 entries were received from artists living all over Canada and working in all media so my piece, In Memorium or the Wake of Progress, being selected was a huge achievement for me.

More information on the prize can be found here SSNAP

Living so close, on Pender Island, I was lucky enough to be able to attend both the Opening and CLosing Galas as well as give an Artist Talk during the run of the show (September 21 - October 22, 2017). It was a beautiful show containing thought-provoking, daring and visually stunning art - both 2 and 3 dimensional. The organizers, jurors and the many volunteers did an absolutely amazing job and made this an exhibit not to be forgotten.

Congratulations to the award winners. Your pieces were all well-deserving of the recognition. Hats off to you:)
