Today is the first day of the Warm in the Cold art exhibit at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery and Studio that I was a co-convenor with Margaret Tough.

Her second painting is "Waiting for Winter" of a snow bound canoe by birch trees.This is found on the main wall at the end of the Gallery.
I have three small paintings in the show over the desk on the side wall.

Roland's Steak House
Recently the KAGS Outdoor Painters' Group were given the opportunity to hang their artwork in Roland's Steak House at 845 Highway 7 East, Peterborough, Ontario.
Earlier this month Vera Penrose and I went to look at the space at Roland's where our paintings would hang.
The first area we were shown was a 12-1/2' (3.8m) wall in the hallway leading to the dining rooms. I thought on that wall we could probably hang eight to ten paintings depending on their size.
Next we were shown the Club Room which is fairly large 20' x 30' (6m x 9m) with plenty of space for paintings.
On the wall to the right of the first door, I thought on the first section before the fireplace could hold two to four paintings and on the other section of the wall from the fire place to the corner could have two to three paintings.
Next came the long wall with two windows and to complicate things even more, in the centre of each of the three sections of the wall there was a light fixture.
I felt those walls would be able to have between six to nine paintings in total.
Then came the long wall with next to no interruptions with the exception of two light fixtures.
I felt that wall could easily take at least seven paintings or more, depending on the size of the paintings.
The last long wall was again broken up much like the wall on the opposite side of the room; but in this case there were two doors, a china cabinet as well as two light fixtures.
On the first section of wall, we could either put in one large painting or three smaller paintings of various sizes.
On the one side of the china cabinet I thought we could probably put up three paintings and on the other side only two paintings would probably work well.
Today Cindy Allan, Norma MacEachern and I hung our paintings together with those of Vera Penrose who was unable to be there with us.
We knew it was going to take a while to hang the area in the hallway and in the Club Room as there were no hooks on the walls to hang paintings and we would have to put in all of them.
The advantage to this is that in the future it is set up and the hooks would remain and not be moved.
Once we set out all of the paintings, we chose the larger pieces first and set them on the floor where they would hang in the rooms and from there each of us took a wall and hung paintingss.
Once we had all the paintings up, we did switch a few of them around to make things look more balanced.
The final result was pleasing and the owners were completely happy with how all the paintings enhanced the room.

6th Annual Purple Onion Festival
This year is a little cooler than last year, but once again it is a bright and sunny day for the 6th Annual Purple Onion Festival.
Its location in Millennium Park in Peterborough, Ontario right on the banks of the Otonabee River is peaceful and relaxing.
It didn't take long for us to set up our display in the space beside the Silver Bean Cafe which attracts a lot of people into the building; with many of them coming through the building after enjoying their coffee or a meal on the patio.
About an hour after the opening of the Festival the first performer which drew a good number of people to our area. We are able to watch the performances throughout the day, which is an added bonus.
At lunchtime we took turns going over to the Taste of The Kawarthas Tent to sample the delicious local food served by ten of the local chefs from some of the finest restaurants in the area.
After lunch a couple of us went out to the Water Street. entrance to Millennium Park to watch the Dance for the Climate where we had the opportunity to learn songs and a few dance moves.
During the last couple of hours of the Festival some of us went out to buy some of the locally grown produce, while others visited the Wellness Village to see the wellness practitioners and purchase a few of their specialty products.
At the end of the show it didn't take very long for everything to be torn down, packaged up and loaded into the vehicles and we were all on our way home after another successful show.

The Uncommon Marketplace
Since Cindy picked up my painting from the Black and White Plus One Colour exhibit at KAGS when the show closed, I agreed to take in her paintings for The Uncommon Marketplace yesterday, that way both of us weren't running down into the bottom end of Peterborough at the same time.
It worked out especially well, as Cindy and I took a trip into Cavan Monaghan Township and Millbrook on Wednesday to find places that we would like to paint for the upcoming 1st Annual Outdoor Painting Festival Cavan/Millbrook which is sponsored in part by Cavan Arts.
The Uncommon Marketplace show is being held at the Canadian Canoe Museum, 910 Monaghan Road, Peterborough, Ontario.
It is featured as "A Celebration of Arts and Crafts".
Throughout the course of this two day event there will be demonstrations of crocheting, drawing, fibre arts, knitting, paddle carving, painting in watercolour, painting on canvas in acrylic or oil, pottery, pyrography (wood burning), weaving, wood turning and much more.
The KAGS display features sixty two paintings from twenty three different artists in a wide variety of media and styles.
Both Cindy and I will be demonstrating upstairs on Sunday afternoon.
Cindy will be working on a couple of large canvases, while I will be painting in watercolour on smaller paintings so I can stop and talk with people about art and KAGS.
The hours for the show are:
17 Sep 16 from 10am-5pm
18 Sep 16 from 12pm-5pm
Admission is Free and there are a number of Free Draw Prizes.
We hope that some of you will be able to come out and enjoy the art show and the canoe exhibits at the Museum.

MacKelvie Gallery
Yesterday three of the Group hung their paintings in the MacKelvie Gallery at Lang Pioneer Village and Museum.
It seems that since I tend to put in smaller paintings my usual spot is on the wall just inside the entrance door to the Gallery.
Two were pen and ink sketches of draft horses and the third was a watercolour still life of an old enamel water pitcher and daisies.
The first wall on the right hand side of the Gallery before the first window was one of three paintings by Diane Collins.
This was a brightly coloured painting of a red flower.
On the same wall at the far end of the Gallery after the second window was the first of three paintings by Cindy Allan of an autumn forest featuring maple and birch trees.
To the left of the windowed wall and on the far back wall from the entrance were the remaining two paintings by Cindy.
They were of barns in winter, the top one of early winter just after harvest and the lower one of late winter just before the arrival of spring.
On the second of the windowed walls on the left was the remaining two of Diane's paintings. They were between the two windows and of the Village Church and a landscape of the area.
The exhibition runs from 01 September through to 06 October.
On 04 September the Village holds their 170th Anniversary Celebration of the Lang Grist Mill with free cake, an all day Harvest Corn Roast, live music throughout the day, horse and wagon rides, demonstrations by the Lang Pioneer Village Quilting Club, old fashioned children’s games and many more events.
The following month on 02 October is the Applefest, a colourful fall celebration of apples and the harvest season, with horse and wagon rides, live music and many more events.
If you have a chance come out and view the show and enjoy the harvest festivities.

Black and White Plus One Colour Show
Today Cindy Allan and I are sitting the first day of the art show at the Kawartha Artists' Gallery and Studio.
Cindy entered three pieces into the exhibit, the first was a portrait of Norma's dog Trooper in graphite and coloured pencil.
Her other two pieces were wonderful acrylic paintings of night skies and were featured on the main wall of the Gallery.
The first one was of the Northern Lights swirling across the night sky with their mysterious glow.
The second piece was a worm's eye view from the forest floor looking up into the starry sky above.
I only entered one piece for this show and it was a graphite pencil portrait of my parent's Standardbred stallion Remlap Joe.
While you are at the Gallery please fill out a ballot and vote for your favourite painting.
If you have a chance come out and view the exhibit which runs from 24 August - 11 September 2016, with the opening reception being held on 28 August 2016 from 1-4pm.

I only entered one piece for this show and it was a graphite pencil portrait of my parent's Standardbred stallion Remlap Joe.

26th Annual Shades of Summer Art Show
Today Diane Collins and I set up our display at St. Matthews Church in Buckhorn, Ont.
We exhibited our art work with a number of members from the Buckhorn Artists' Group
At this show only eleven of the fourteen members of the Group decided to exhibit their paintings, part of it was due to the show changing from nine days to only four days, which some they felt was a lot of work for such a short time.
We also had to set up the grids tonight and have everything ready in time to open the show tomorrow morning.
The hours for our show are:
11 Aug 16 - 9:00am - 5:00pm
12 Aug 16 - 9:00am - 5:00pm
13 Aug 16 - 9:00am - 5:00pm
14 Aug 16 - 12:30pm - 4:00pm
We hope you will come out and enjoy the exhibition over the next four days.
