PRESS RELEASE :: Cenovus Art Competition — Janice Tanton’s “Spirit Horse Lodges” Purchased

On April 26, 2013 By

Ear­lier this year, I was invited along with 36 artists in Alberta and Saskatchewan to par­tic­i­pate in the inau­gural “Cen­ovus Art Com­pe­ti­tion”. The focus of the com­pe­ti­tion was to iden­tify “under-recognized artists” in Alberta and Saskatchewan, in the form of a com­pe­ti­tion. Nor­mally, I don’t go in for these sort of things, but I liked what the com­pany was propos­ing to do.

Catching My Breath and Celebrating! The Final Piece of the Puzzle in an Artist’s Exhibition.

On August 5, 2012 By

Now, it’s time to take some time and cel­e­brate the suc­cess of this won­der­ful show. I’m usu­ally not one to pause long enough to catch my breath.…but catch­ing my breath was exactly what I did yes­ter­day when I saw the works all hung together. As artists, we need to take a moment and cel­e­brate the accom­plish­ments along the way. It is no mean feat, tak­ing hours of man­power, years of train­ing, eons of prac­tice and a lit­tle magic!
