I had the pleasure of meeting with the lovely group at Good Space Design today. I brought in a new painting “Light’s Release” to hang in their Gastown office, where they work with clients to provide creative interior design plans. Painting is pictured above in its new space.
Mixed media on panel with resin. 54″ x 18″.
Limelight (24″ x 24″) and Cloud Line (24″ x 24″) showing spring colours at Walrus.
New paintings, In The Woods, (24″ x 36″) pictured top, and Two Hearts, (36″ x 24″) below, available through Artworks Gallery.
New Paintings at Brougham Interiors shown below. “Close Up” (top), 30″ x 30″, and “Nature Study”, 30″ x 30″.
So inspired by this time of year -ok it’s a little early for spring- and my new studio space. Still loving the Beaumont but have switched to a slightly larger space at the studio to allow me to spread out a bit, stand back from what I’m working on. All good. Above, new piece in progress!
ARTIST OF THE WEEK
Christine Breakell-Lee
“Only at the Beaumont a few months now, i have the enjoyable pleasure of sharing space with Christine & her bodies of work. It is amazing to watch her work & I’m taken back by every one of her finished pieces. It seems as fast as they are off the easel, they are out the door into the hands of proud client. Take a moment & look at her website, or better yet, take a moment & come down to the studio to have a lookie loo.” http://mixc.wordpress.com/
- Thanks, Jude, for including me not only in the newsletter but also in the community at the Beaumont! I enjoy all my time there -C.
New at Walrus…
If you’re in the Cambie area, stop in to Walrus and see my new painting. It’s a 36″ x 36″ on wood panel with resin called “Pink Moon”… although Caroline may still be going with her “Disco Ball”!
Happy New Year!
I am starting the New Year as part of “Fresh”, a group exhibit at Art Works Gallery in Yaletown, Vancouver. The show officially opens January 9th, and will feature new works from various artists. “Loose Ends” and “Hook, Line and Sinker”, below, are new paintings that are up on the walls! Other pieces available through Art Works are on their website. To see photos from the show, click on Fresh!
New Studio Space at the Beaumont
I began painting in my new space this week at the Beaumont Studios. It is a great space, filled with lovely light and is an inspiring environment to work in. The paintings I am currently working on is for a friend and client, who sold my first painting when I started dedicating my time to my artwork! Above are the first of four paintings, pictured in my new place.
Sold Treetop…
I visited my friend and client, interior designer Lisa Wrixon in her amazing new home in North Vancouver. The house is set close enough to the trees to enjoy the forest and mountain views and so it was fitting Lisa chose the painting above, Treetop, for her entrance way. It will be alongside complementary pieces I am creating for the space. It is an exciting project for a beautiful space and good friend – I’m very excited to get started!!
CANVAS LOUNGE DISPLAY
I had the awesome opportunity to show a few paintings at Canvas Lounge this Thursday night at an event supporting the arts in Vancouver. I thank the lovely Beaumont Studios for including me in this exhibit … details to follow soon on my new studio space. Hint: I am very excited!!
New painting, Boulder and Snow detail, full image above.
My Paintings are now available at Brougham Interiors…
I met with the owners of Brougham Interiors this week in their beautiful showroom on Fir Street in Vancouver. So excited to have my work on their walls and to get to know their designers. Four paintings will soon be up in the shop, including this large one below…
Love Letter….Just finished a new painting that reminds me of a well-worn note – aged, scripted and with pockets of light and dark, shimmers of gold leaf. Layers and layers…
Here’s a shot from IDSWest… After pestering the West Ender free-lance photographer, Andrew Chin, he was kind enough (and patient enough) to shoot my booth! Thanks!
Sold Fired Up Wave today – thank-you Walrus!! Here it is photographed in the courtyard outside my studio. You made my birthday and apparently the client’s birthday extra special too!
Had a great show at IDSWest. Such a positive experience again this year and look forward to working on the commissions and larger pieces that are coming up for me. Thanks for visiting me over the weekend!
Your paintings are so beautiful. I think you still have one at Walrus, no? How did you like the idsWest show?
I had a really show. Lots of interest so I am pretty keen to start up again on larger pieces – always jumpstarts the creativity. Yes, Walrus always have a few.. they just sold one this morning
Did you like the show? See anything that especially caught your eye?
