PRESENTING: ARABELLA e MAGAZINE, October 2021 Arabella is a beautiful high end Canadian Art Magazine. I am very pleased to have an 11 page feature in this magazine! It has recently gone from thick glossy pages to an eformat during Covid times. I am happy to be featured with the amazing artists in this edition. Note from Editor in Chief, Debra Usher This issue is full of art, artists, design and décor. As well we have sunflowers in every different shade and pies to please the palate. There is a gallery to visit, a special design project as well as two beautiful new home projects in a parade of colour. Autumn is full of colour and warmth and we hope we have captured the spirit of the season. |
The ArtSea Virtual Artist Tour continued into 2021.
This year my presentation is focussed towards those wanting to know more about my process of creating a representational painting. I hope you enjoy it! You can see all the artist tours by clicking the link below. |
