I dropped off these entries to the Art Gallery on Saturday.

They are part of the Movement Show opening today featuring artists from all over the province.

The Reception will be on Saturday, April 11, 2026 from 1:00 - 3:00 pm at the Spruce Grove Gallery in Heavy Metal Place.

Title: Red Swirl

Size: 9 x 9 inches

Frame: Black Wood Frame

Mat: Single Black Mat

Photograph: 5x5 inches matte print

This is a close up photo of a glass marble being light from the bottom with a red swirl inside. 

The swirl suggests movement with leading lines starting from near on the left to far on the right.

Title: Red in the Wood

Size: 14 x 12 inches

Frame: Warm Grey Wood Frame

Mat: Double White Mat

Photograph: 6 x 8 inches matte print

This is an Intentional Camera Movement photo where the camera is moved while the shutter is open for a few seconds which produces blur and an artistic abstraction of the scenery.  There is a faint red spot top right hand corner of the photo which is a red mitten lost along the path that someone hung in the tree. 

The path in the wood curves around and creates leading lines in the composition.

Title: Earth and Sky

Size: 14 x 17 inches

Frame: Black Wide Profile Wood Frame

Mat: Double White Mat

Photograph: Watercolor 8 x 10 inch original

The blue paint was placed horizontally across the paper and allowed to drip down while held upside down. 

Then the paper was right side up and brown color was placed very near the blue which allowed the color to mix along that horizontal line. The paint dripped down to the bottom of the paper.

The colors were used to suggest deep roots in the earth and dynamic atmospheric movement in the sky.
