It's tricky when one does artwork based on the idea rather than the medium. Most of the time when submitting to shows one has to declare.

Here is 'A fish out of water' , 2004 (I think). Acrylic on canvas.

I like to work with the idea and then figure out - is it a sculpture or shall I try painting , oil pastel on paper - would that work. And on it goes.

One observation about the Toronto City Hall Art Show - there are far fewer sculptors so it's worth a shot just on the basis of getting in to go with sculptor rather than painter. I think the ratio was 5:1 - way more painters out there.

Sorry to have missed the West Toronto Art Crawl this year which was quite good to me last year. I just have too much going on with the librarian side to have pulled it off. The picture shows me at the QWAC - on the first day. Late on Sunday it got kind of blowy and that turned into a challenge to keep things looking reasonably professional while holding the tent down.

More later.
