Some choice moments from last night's opening at Gladstone House as part of the DesignTO festival. Always fun to share the work with friends and total strangers! Thanks again to curator Lee Petrie for this opportunity and for the beautiful installation.

Pix from the opening reception Thursday evening of "It's Personal", featuring work by me, donovan, and Nair Nielsen. Great opportunity to show the work IRL to some of my favorite people! The reception went swimmingly, but if you couldn't make it Thursday to The Neilson Park Creative Centre, the show is on till September 25th.Thanks once more to my partners in this venture (Teri and Par), to the wonderful staff at NPCC (shout out to Therrien), and to David Williams for some great photography.

Thoroughly delighted and proud, and looking forward to the opening reception September 16 (a public event, but you need to register: https://www.artgalleryofmississauga.com/exhibitions/) Show runs from September 13 to October 23.
