In the next couple of months, I’ll be participating in three art events. I’m waiting for confirmations on the details, and will be posting them soon. Until then, I’m focusing on the prep work!
A lot has been happening over the summer, and I’m finally getting ready to paint again! Sooo excited!
I recently met Ed Rezac who works with engineers, scientists and NASA astronauts. It’s been great hearing about what’s happening, and seeing some awesome pictures and videos!
There are only two official shuttle launches left. As part of the Face in Space program, my photo below will be aboard both the Discovery, scheduled for September, and the Endeavour, scheduled for November.
Watch for further posts on these upcoming historic missions. When the countdown begins, and the shuttle rockets out of our atmosphere, I’ll be thinking of that little piece of me and my art that is on board, on a journey into space.
This photo will be launched into space aboard the Discovery and the Endeavour!
What a fun night! So many artists, and all in support of a such a great cause!!!
Here is a small selection of photos of my exhibit that night.

The Gastown satellite spaces for grace-gallery are still open following Artwalk Vancouver 2010. My Spaced Out paintings, and my latest painting “Magellanic Cloud” can be viewed at 20 Water Street, Vancouver. The hours are 2 – 7pm, or by appointment.
The 10 satellite spaces were empty, with no power, and they took a great deal of work to prepare – and the results are amazing! They are raw and dynamic and unique, and brought to life with the artwork of 23 artists. Rachel Zottenberg of grace-gallery did a stunning job of pulling this together in only three weeks! Below are some pictures of my exhibition…
