It's Show time!

"Alberta Sky"
Oil on Linen - 18x24"
(for purchase info click here)

Finally, the paintings are painted, photographed, varnished, framed, delivered and hung. Yay! This is always my favourite time - the "I can stop going at a million miles an hour" time.

My show of 20 new works + 20 of my 100 in 100 paintings will be on display at the Avens Gallery in Canmore until January 1st, 2011. The show opens tomorrow and I will be there from 1-4pm. I would LOVE to see you there if you can make it!

PS: The above painting was done from field study #70 in my 100 in 100.

"Rain Approaching"
Oil on Linen 6x8"

  6. Liz, I've just returned from your show opening...I'm stoked!!!! Inspiration enough to take me through to 2012, at least!
    You've outdone yourself, girl. How amazing to see how those "100 in 100" gems translated to larger paintings. I've come away gobsmacked and totally at a loss to choose my favourite. Each painting is stunning.
    Congratulations! I'm thrilled for you, my friend,
    Bobbi

  7. Congrats, Liz. What a beautiful body of work for the show! It's interesting to compare the studio pieces with your plein air alla prima paintings that we all enjoyed so much this summer. I hope the opening is fun, I'm sure the show will be a huge success.
