ABOUT THE SERIES:  SOMEDAY

Every one of us has hopes and dreams to pursue, some day. We say, “Someday, I’d like to do it.” Too often, “someday” never comes. While I’ve been actively pursuing my art career, I’d let other things slide. My social life, my health, and activities outside the realm of art were put off for “someday”.

Now that my business is thriving, it is time to declare that “someday” has come! As a way to celebrate and rejuvinate my body / soul I booked a week-long stay on Salt Spring
Island, in a cabin in the woods. I attended artist workshops, visited the galleries and gift shops, explored the forest and beaches, read books, and completed four painting studies. I took many reference photos to take back to my studio, and there, the series, “Someday” was born.

I started this series late in the year, as my adventure to Salt Spring Island didn’t take place until the end of August. I had only a few months to create new works for my year-end art exhibit. So this year’s series is limited to just six works on canvas and six painting studies on paper. I plan to continue the series into the new year.
