Extreme Makeover: Exhibition at the Rotary Centre for the Arts, Kelowna

Posted on May 21, 2010 by admin

Extreme Makeover is the show which is currently on display at the Rotary Centre for the Arts at 421 Cawston Avenue and the corner of Ellis. The work that I have done for close to 13 years is on display for the public to view until June 1st. At that time it goes into storage and my life will move away from Kelowna.

My friends Angie and Lil did most of the work for hanging the show

This is probably the last opportunity Kelowna residents will have to view my work all at once, in one place. Large pieces such as red/black making a statement at 5 feet by 4 are difficult to show in many venues. The 7 foot pieces of Feng Shui which explore fire, earth/wood, wind/spirit, water and metal are all together as they are meant to be viewed.

contemporary condo overlooking water would be great setting

The show is free and open to the public from 9 am until 8 pm. In the display cases are the inspirational door stops I have created, tee shirts and funky purses. All of these items are on at sale prices because I need to pull into storage and wish to have as little as possible to actually cart back.

My focus these days is preparing the storage facility, getting the house and yard in order and finishing up teaching my class for Okanagan College.

Embrace. Two spirits like hands intertwining

Today I will finish marking exams, begin to bring order to the yard and get some painting and filling of window gaps with the fun expanding foam that bonds permanetly to everything including clothing and skin.

Also, I will be hosting some really fun workshop for the Fat Cat Children’s Festival. What amazes me is how the child’s creativity and bravery can open up the mother or father to try things. I always encourage the parent to join in and they are actually the ones who are most surprised at what they can create. Our focus becomes so much on our children that we can forget to experience our own journey. http://www.fatcatfestival.ca/stations.htm The actual stations are not up yet, but check back on this link and they will be in a few weeks.

Private commissions are looming. I have a commission for a couple who purchased a piece from me and want two more to go on either side. That will be next after I create order in my home. I also have a CD cover to design in the near future. I really enjoy doing graphics for journals, book jackets, Cd covers and stage props. Really exciting to me are the various forms my art can take.

The sun is shining. I have had a delicious coffee. My friends are all around me. Watch out world, I am healing physically and emotionally. The adventure begins.

May you go in Joy.

It sounds salacious but it just means that we got the sale item bathtub mortared in place. While Cameron was making the drains and connections work, I dug out all the ivy under the tree that had been attacking my neighbour’s side of the fence for the last three years. I am amazed at how patient she was with me and my invasive three types of ivy. Not to mention the grape that likes to hurl itself over the top of the fence and go after their small dogs. ( Perhaps I am exaggeration).

I came out of the gate of life like a racehorse. At the age of 17 I was attending university where I earned a B.A in arts and a B.Ed. in secondary education from Western Washington University in Bellingham. I minored in Philosophy, Modern Dance and Art. I began studies for an M.FA in creative writing and stopped just short of a full degree. Moving to Vancouver, B.C. I completed a M.A. in Contemporary Poetry under the well-known Warren Tallman. I taught as a T.A. at both Western Washington and at UBC.
Now, after over twenty years as an English high school teacher and as a Acting teacher, I am a working visual artist and writer.
My background connects me to all forms of art in the Okanagan for the 30 plus years I have lived here. I was a founding member of the Vernon Dance School, the City of Kelowna Arts Foundation, the Okanagan Film Festival Society. I wrote, produced and directed plays and was on the executive of Theatre Kelowna. As a columnist for B.C. Musician Magazine I wrote the jazz column for over three years. My husband, Cameron, is an accomplished jazz musician in the valley. So my roots in the art community run deep and wide. Visual art, poetry, non-fiction writing, theatre, dance, and jazz have all enriched my life. My goal is to help other artists in Kelowna to bring joy to the public. I will happily give publicity to any artist with no prejudice…as long as “no animals are hurt in the production.” Tell me about it and I will spread the good news.

Competition at www.saatchi-gallery

The above link is to my image at the Saatchi Gallery competition. If you wish to see the image, or vote for it, just click on the link.

Last night I spent three hours researching galleries in Montreal. Today my intention is to, finally, get to the appointment I have for a hip x-ray and to get my files in order in my studio.

So much of life is about the flow. The flow of circulation in the body, the flow of energy as we move, the flow of finding and sending out jpg files with the correct information attached. When I lose focus, the flow stops. It is only after a “pain” errupts that I notice that the maintenance necessary for qi has been disrupted. Slowly, slowly it gets better. Now I am aware of how much better my life is if I am aware of the ebbing of possibilities for growth, movement, going beyond. Two years ago it took a major scream before I heard life speak to me. Now I can hear the gruff voice growl before it becomes a scream.

The intention to keep life organized, to use that as a platform from which to launch off into the chaos and wildly unexpected possibilities of creativity is where I start each day. How to be patient with myself and with those around me who keep grinding over the same lessons much like my hip grinds on the nerve.

If life was a place where we have programmed learning until we go to the next level, then I am ready for moving out of these lessons…. these lessons of order, flow and patience and on to the next inevitable set of frustrations.
