The Alberta Flood Rose Project

"The flood waters rose... Albertans rose to the challenge!

The Alberta Flood Rose Project invites all Calgary and area visual artists to create an original 4"x4" (inch) piece of wall art, depicting the provincial flower of Alberta, the wild rose. The finished pieces will be arranged in groups of 100, and framed as a larger piece. After being on display in a public location during the month of August, the framed art pieces will be up for auction at the end of August, 2013 with all proceeds to go to the Red Cross for flood relief."

This is my 4x4 contribution to this project. Here's their website: The Alberta Flood Rose Project

Framed Acrylic Paintings

I just had these 2 paintings framed and they look great! It really makes 'It Was a Good Tobogganing Day' a substantial painting that would look good in a mud room or family room. It is framed in a very thick 2 1/4" black gallery style or floater frame.
24x12 acrylic on birch board
SOLD

'The Optimist Club' (series 10J12) is also newly framed in a black 1 1/4" gallery style or floater frame. It's filled with colour on a dreary rainy day - hence the title! 10x10 acrylic on canvas SOLD

Greeting Cards

I printed up a 2nd run of greeting cards featuring 3 different images of my paintings. The 1st run was very well received. The cards are 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, blank inside and are individually wrapped in cellophane with the envelope. I think the quality is quite nice.

They are priced at $3.95 each and delivery in the city is free! A set of 3 ($11.85) makes a perfect gift - perhaps for teachers and others. Shipping outside of the city is extra, but it would not be too much.

Let me know if you are interested.
