More photos of your art…and the winner!

Here are the last of the Art in Your Homes photos that you have sent in. Last night I wrote out all of your names with the artwork in the photos you sent. I put them all in a large bowl (there were lots!) and drew one name out. The winner of a 12" x 12" unframed print is Trish from Guelph with her photo of 'Swirl'.  Congratulations Trish! Thank you so much to everyone who sent in photos and messages about the artwork you have. It has been a very nice experience for me to hear such good things and a bit of a trip down memory lane with some of the works.
Now, to finish up the last bits of big tidy for our Studio Open House. I am looking forward to seeing some of you this weekend. There are lots of art and craft events in Guelph this weekend, so lots to see and do.

More photos of your art!

Photos are still coming in, thank you to everyone who has sent me one (or more so far. I did not specify what time today I would do the draw, so have decided that I would draw the lucky winner's name at 10pm this evening. The winner will be contacted via email first thing Friday morning.
I have been getting lots of messages about photos coming soon. Please, you don't have to be artistic with it if you do not have time. A simple snap with a cell phone counts just as much as one with a tripod. 
Here is another batch of photos, then I am off to finish tidying for the weekend. Hope to see you then!

More Photos of Your Art

More photos to share. Thank you to everyone who has sent their pics in! It might take me a bit of time to get them all up here. 
Don't forget to send them to me before November 28th as that is the day I will draw one name to win a 12" square, unframed print of your choice. I have many works in this size, so lots to choose from. If you are far away, don't worry, I can mail it to you easily.

Photos of Your Art!

The photos are starting to come in and it's so much fun to see the different art pieces from over the years and where they hang in your lives. Lots of lovely comments on living with art and how you are still enjoying your work.
Thank you!
