<span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;">I would like to invite everyone to an artist talk I am giving this Thursday on new print based work that I have exhibiting at the SNAP Community Gallery in Edmonton. The work is heavily influence by my experiences in the Yukon last summer, and I will also be talking about quite a bit about my art practice in general as it relates to this new body of work. I hope you will consider attending. Check out the link for details. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 16px;">I have contemplated for months how to start writing about my experiences in the Canadian North as I attended the Canadian Wilderness Artist Residency. I still am a bit lost as to how to share it, how can I possibly do the experience justice in just a few short paragraphs within these blog posts. Well, something in me is compelling me to try to articulate it now. Enough time has passed to transform the experience into reflections. There were so many moments that I think about now that fuel my present living, moments that serve as metaphors filling in gaps of understanding were only a river memory can bring clarity. I am writing in many ways to hold onto this space for just a little bit longer, but also in an effort to understand who I am. This space has a weight to it that stays with you and I am wanting to understand that more. I invite you into this reflective journey perhaps for accountability, but also to extend the gift of courage, strength and adventure. </span></div>

I had the privilege of traveling with many photographers and artist one of whom snapped this photo with my phone on the edge of Lake Laberge. I am just unsure which talented individual did it, but as photos are posted I will be sure to give credit for the images where it is due.</div>

This photo I took captures the smoke that hung over the lake, filtering the sunshine making the atmosphere a bit ominous. The lone canoe perhaps serves as a foreshadow of the many introspective moment this trip was about to offer. </div>

Hello Subscribers! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Summer 2018, seems like so long ago, yet the memories of this place stick. Canada's Yukon Territory, what an amazing place, and over the next few weeks I will be posting memories, thoughts, and reflective writing about my trip, my artwork, and the connections I made with land, others, and myself. It was certainly the highlight of the summer and an experience that has impacted not only my artwork but also my lifestyle. I will share how in future posts so stay tuned! Thanks for your continued support! </div>

This definition informed my use of triangular shapes in order to provide a structural framework that speak to how we form environments and how environments form us. In these studies these geometric shapes take on a transparency that allows for marks and colour to exist beyond their framework. The way light bends, is diffused, is blocked and reflected when interrupted by objects interests me as these moments seem to suspend time, creating surreal like atmospheres that seemingly carry messages from other worldly spaces and realities.<br /><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, .SFNSText-Regular, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(29, 33, 41); color: #1d2129; font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"></span>

Spring is slowly starting to arrive here and the air and earth is still very could. The sculptural forms of the built up water droplets caught my eye and stuck with me for quiet a few days after taking these photos. I decided to use these forms as a way of considering patten and mark making in a series of monotype prints. I am experimenting with different kinds of paper and collage as well to achieve tactility.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "SF Optimized", system-ui, -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ".SFNSText-Regular", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: -0.11999999731779099px;"><br /></span>

HerWork2018 is a group exhibition celebrating women artists from the greater Edmonton area, coinciding with International Women’s Day. The theme of the show this year is "Partnership" and Corwyn and I would love for you to join us at the opening reception on March 8 from 6 to 8 pm to celebrate the work we have done together. The exhibition runs for the month of March.</span><br />

I stayed late and worked on a few new viscosity print plates. Thanks Don Colpitts for hanging out and taking this photo of my copper plate. It was great fun to see how the prints turned out, I think I am beginning to understand how this works. Always different, always unpredictable. Then late at night when the studio was quite, I painted and pulled a couple more monotypes. Working this way is so satisfying. </span><br />

The practice of working out imagery, colour palette, marks, and textures is something that is becoming an regular part of my creative routine. I am moving from a representational approach of documenting spaces, places and objects to a more abstracted interpretation in order to capture an essence of a space rather than a recognizable reminder, or accurate picture. The images pictured here is some field work I did few weeks back when I went snowshoeing out and about in my neighbourhood. Winter is long and I am learning to embrace it's beauty.<br />

What a year! Graduating from the BFA program at the University of Alberta has brought with it a new found freedom! Splitting my time between my home studio and the print studio at SNAP in Edmonton, AB is providing the right mix of community and solitude. Expressive approaches to image making is liberating! I look forward to a year of developing this abstracted language and showing my work! Happy New year everyone!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I started teaching with the City Arts Centre in Edmonton this summer. I taught a floral workshop to beginner painters in August and am currently teaching level 1 and 2 Acrylic Painting and Travel Journaling. The students are great to work with, all of them have been very enthusiastic about learning. I work at setting them up with the foundations of drawing and painting with the goal of having them be successful with incorporating creativity into their lives in what every they way they intend. It is really great to be a part of the students journey to creativity and art appreciation! I am so proud of every one of them!</div>

After graduating in the spring from the University of Alberta with a BFA, I jumped right into the Society of Northern Alberta Printmakers studio to start some printmaking projects. I also continued working on paintings, first having a rented space, but soon discovering I needed to have the painting part of my practice at home as I tend to work late into the night when I paint and did not need a forty five minute commute between me and my bed at the end of painting sessions. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Transitioning from three years of full time studies to professional art practice after Undergraduate studies has not been easy. I discovered I needed to heal, being kind to myself and allowing for a margin of time to discover new routines, new ways of seeing the world, and new ways of expressing my experiences. My work has shifted formally from representational to the abstract. I can not tell you how exhilarating it is to work in a way that is purely reactionary and expressive. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This blog has gone through many shifts, and now another shift is occurring. I will be sharing here my creative process, progress on projects, research and other things that feed into my creative practice. I invite you once again to join me as I work through life creativity.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The past year has been filled with full time studies at the University of Alberta. This experience has proved to be insightful as to my capacity for learning and stretching conceptual thought. One thing that has been a constant throughout last year and the year before has been meeting with a group of artist while studying the human figure. I am pleased to have an opportunity to show selected new figurative work that I have produced over the last two years with this group and in classes from this last year with my creative studies. Capturing the living breathing essence of being is proving to be a practice that is informing my artistic practice as a whole.<br />
<br />
If you are in the area I hope you consider joining me and the other artist for the <b>opening reception Thursday August 4th from 6 to 9pm at the VASA Gallery in St. Albert, AB.</b><br />
<br />
Thank you for staying with me during this long break from posting. I look forward to sharing with you more frequently all that fuels my creative practice. This will include but not be limited to sketches, studies, photos, and quite possibly some of my creative non fiction writing and poetry!<br />

I get lost in the shadows and the light of still life paintings. The push and pull of light and shadow around the objects and the transparency and reflective surfaces created a wonderful playground within this still space.</div>

Hello all of my blog spot friends! </h2>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I hope you all had a great summer and are settling into the new fall routine. I have a lot of things going on that I wish to pass along in hopes that it inspires in some way. </div>
<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have been wanting to go back to school to get my degree in Fine Arts for quite some time now. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I applied for the fall term this year and got accepted in the the Bachelors of Arts program. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I will transfer into the the Bachelor of Fine Arts program and take on a more full time course load possibly as soon as next year. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
For this fall term I am taking Drawing and Intermedia and English. For the winter term I will add to this course load an Art History. These courses I am in this term are proving to be very interesting. I am enjoying the experience of this learning environment. What an amazing place of diversity in culture and idea! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Both my husband and I graduated from the Visual Communications program in 1993 at the Medicine Hat College, Alberta, Canada. We will be traveling back to our old stomping grounds next weekend. The painting "All Sufficient" was accepted in the Alumni Show an exhibition celebrating the new space for the program and art gallery. </div>

This Christmas season I had the privilege of doing two commission pieces. Each painting presented their own unique experiences. When doing commissions I keep the recipient in mind, not so much with the thoughts of what they would like, more so it is a celebration of that person. These paintings are now in their new homes so I now can present them to you. </div>

A big thank you to those who came out to the artist reception at We Frame It on Sunday.<br />
<br />
The show is up all of December so please take some time to go and check it out. This is not a typical thing, posting a painting I have in a current show but I wanted to show one of the new ones I did for this show and hope you go and see it in person! Just to clarify the painting "Remembering" that was in my last post is not in this current show however another new 30x30" painting is.<br />
<br />
Hope you are all having a safe and joyful holiday season.Deltra Powneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14804906617453637922noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7244813655728213135.post-8662946620600379172012-12-03T12:30:00.000-08:002014-03-19T08:20:57.813-07:00New show invitation and the painting RememberingI invite you to attend a new exhibition of work at the We Frame It Gallery in Spruce Grove.

I took some time to myself after this show. It was good to step back and evaluate. Coming into winter now I am working on new work and looking forward to more opportunities to show the work. I will post the work from the "Where Two or Three are Gathered" show over the next few weeks. I hope you check in to see it. In this photo I am standing beside Gathering II. The painting "Backside" (appropriately positioned behind me in the photo!) found a home with my friend Kim!</div>

The exhibition "Where two or three are gathered" is coming to an end soon. It all comes down this Wednesday the 19th. I was so pleased that over 40 people came out to my artist reception to view the work. Thank you to all who came out to that, and to all who came out to see the show during the month it was at the Multicultural Center Public Art Gallery. </div>

What a privilege to show in this space. I can not say enough positive things about John Maywood the curator. He is professional and goes the extra mile to show the work with pride. I am profoundly grateful for his support and encouragement.</div>

If you are in the area and have not seen it yet, you still have a couple days to take it in! </div>

I was interviewed for this article over the phone two weeks ago. I had my sister visiting so the kids were occupied playing with her. I took off for the gallery to get my photo taken. The young reporter seem very nervous as he spoke to me. He informed me he had only been with the paper for three months. It all seemed to go fine. I then returned home only to find the kids in the middle of a water fight with the neighbor kids and they were using my kitchen to load their ammunition! I quickly changed and joined in the fun. You never know what the day will bring!</div>
