March Art Show

Hi Everyone,

The Elaine Fleck Gallery in Toronto will be showing my paintings again for the month of March. The gallery's normal hours are Wednesday to Sunday, 12-5pm, and the opening will be this Saturday from 2-4pm.

Unfortunately I'll be unable to make it to the opening this time around, but hopefully I'll be able to see some of you again next time.

If you can't make it to the show, I've included the new painting "rain boots" in this email, and you can view the other pieces that will be in the show online.

"rain boots" - oil on plywood, 28"x36" -
(still on the easel in this photo) the latest painting
 that I just shipped to the gallery for the show.
So many have told me the paintings look so much better in person than they do online, so hopefully you'll be able to go have a look at them in person. One day I'll upgrade my site, but I should say hopefully I'll find time to upgrade my website because I'm usually too busy trying to finish the actual paintings. 

April Charity Auction

 

I've donated a painting to the Buy Art Not Kids charity auction in Toronto. The live auction take place on April 4th. Check out their site for more info and to see the great art that will be available.

Here's my donation piece:

"from the blue line"/"the shooter" - oil on plywood - 24"x24"
cheers,
Marcel

'Passers by' painting on magazine cover

Here's my painting `Passers by' on the cover of the Canadian Journal of Rural Medicine:



I just received my copies in the mail, and it`s really nice to see it in print. Very cool. They've put some very good and well known artists on their covers in the past, so I'm honoured to have one of my paintings included. Thanks CJRM!

cheers,
Marcel
