While in self-isolation, Vera Samarkina, an avid gardener and experimenting artist, took her love of nature to the next level by creating a Life Narrative: In this series of acrylics on canvas, using flower and abstract imagery, the artist contemplates about milestones that every human being faces in their life and celebrates the journey within one’s self.

Virtual Gallery Show – Far From Home
Saturday, May 23
Today’s Virtual Gallery Show features Azadeh Hoveyda. Azzy works in oil and mixed media.
We, as humans, tend to tell stories, and mine happens to be on canvas. I am often impressed that the story I was trying to tell has different angles from other people’s points of view who see my paintings and I guess that’s the whole point. Each story has different sides and it all depends on how we look at it. – Azzy

We are visual creatures; colours lift our souls and stir our emotions, nature’s beautiful colours are everywhere, the flowers, the multiple colours of sunsets, the shades of green and brown forest, blue and white skies, the emerald green and the deep blues of the seas – Shoshana

Virtual Gallery Show – A Moment in Time
Irina Grobman
Saturday, May 2
In anticipation of spring, sunshine and new life the show is a collection of memories from years past. All of these are painted from life and en plein air and each represent a special moment in time. Isn’t what life is anyways, ‘a moment in time’ ?
My wish and hope is that we do not waste this precious time in isolation and emerge reborn with fresh perspective and purpose. View it as a gift not curse as is every life challenge.
This was a playful challenge to re-create your favourite art using objects lying around home.
We received 5 submissions and they are sure to brighten your day and bring a smile to your face!
Art Challenge #3 – Everyday Objects
We asked you to look out your windows and around your homes to create “something where most people would find nothing”.
Look what you saw!
