Studio Tour Preparations

Fairfield Artists Studio Tour
Since 1989, Vic and I have been transforming our cozy studio/ home into a welcoming creative public place during the spring/summer studio tour season. We are always happy to meet art lovers and curious folks and this is a perfect way to show everyone where we work and play. For our 2 day event, we open up our 5 studio spaces and rooms which are overflowing with paintings, prints and various works of art and quirky stuff. I will be happy to show you the big painting I am working on. This painting is the labour of love I was talking about in my previous blog Springtime in The Neighbourhood. By viewing this painting in progress you can see how I developed my personal method of painting my expansive neighbourhood views.

 April 30th and May 1st  11 am to 4 pm we welcome you to take the tour through the gorgeous neighbourhood of Fairfield and visit us and 37 other Fairfield artists in their studios and public community locations.

You will find each artist and studio space unique. If you have a chance to have a conversation with any of us, we will reveal our individual approaches to making art and give you a glimpse of how we all are making a difference in the art world here in this city and abroad. The tour artists welcome your questions and your interest in their personal visions whether it be in paint, digital art, photography, sculpture, fabrics, silver, gold and clay.

Local artist studio tours are fun and promote the importance of enjoying and supporting our Canadian arts and culture.

    Thank you Marcia,
    Day One of the studio tour was fabulous. Lots of inquiring minds and great questions and much appreciation for ArtLife and the Neighbourhood Series. Studio Tours and shows are so essential since we work in isolation and it's so delightful to spread out the all our paintings for the visitors to see. All the positive comments keep us going year after year.

    can any one point me in the right direction where I can get a print of " When Spring turned to Summer"? I know it is out of print now but is there a copy being sold any where?

    Best Regards,

    Dave Dunk.

    Hello Anonymous,
    Regarding your search for "When Spring Turned To Summer, sorry to say it is a sold out limited edition print.Occasionally an edition print will come up for sale on the secondary market through a private seller.
    If you would like me to let you know who to get in touch with when one is available on the secondary market, please email me your contact information to e-studio@shaw.ca

    Thanks,
    Barbara Weaver-Bosson
