Painting of the Month- September 2023

The painting below 'As the Tale Begins' is inspired by the classic fairy tale’ Little Red Riding Hood’ .  The painting depicts the small red figure of the young little red against a cold and desolate winter backdrop. The forest radiates to the left calling Little Red in so that she may begin her journey.

This painting will be on display with many others during the show 'Little Red' on now at Melt Studio and Gallery at Base31 in Picton.

This is a duo show with fellow artist Leisa Rich,  renowned textile artist hailing from nearby Howe Island.

Come see how we interpret this classical tale encompassing themes of fear and rebellion.  Of naivety and vengeance towards a celebration of wisdom, grace and triumph.

Follow us into the woods this Saturday September 23rd  during our opening reception  7-9 pm. 

Show continues to October 22nd.  Hours Thursday through Sunday 11:00am - 5:00 pm.
