I was deeply honoured to receive an Honourable Mention for my pastel, plein air painting, “Indian Summer on the Humber River Trail”. This painting was painted on a warm day fall day, known as an “Indian Summer” on Sept 30, Reconciliation Day, on the grounds of the McMicheal Canadian Art Collection. Thank you to Fine Art Milton members who worked hard behind the scenes to create such a wonderful experience for artists and a beautifully mounted show. Thanks too to the jurors Joanne Poluch of Remarque Art Consulting and Claudia Pettigrew from Summer and Grace Gallery and congratulations to my fellow artists. The show at Holcium Gallery, 1010 Main St E, Milton, Ontario, will continue until Oct 3, 2026.
