to be exhibiting alongside these two very talented artists, Bev Friesen and Gail Sawatzky. Record numbers of visitors came out during October to see the the exhibition. I'm so grateful for the abundance of positive feedback that left me feeling enthused to keep on painting. I paint because I love it, and its just a bonus when other people like it and are inspired by it too.Thank you for all the wonderful comments in my exhibition guestbook!
