My show at the Algonquin Visitors Centre opened this weekend. First time I've seen all the large studio paintings hung together. Felt good.

Current bid only $43. If u want an original of mine, a painting on a paddle of Joe Lake,my main lake of the Thomson project is a good chance
I have a painted paddle 4 this fundraiser. Only paddle I've ever painted other than a small antique 1 in my own collection. #85. Take a look teapawt.net/algonquinoutfit/status…
The second stone my name has been on this last year. The Pathway of fame in Peterborough and Alg Park. Fortunately neither is a headstone!

Make sure to notice something very exciting to me. The inclusion of one of my paintings on one of the pathway stones. Another honour for me
Matt hanging one of the two Tom Thomson originals at the the gallery. What a great feeling to have my art hanging with Tom Thomson's. teapawt.net/algonquinoutfit/status…

The links I sent were wrong. Sorry! It should be AlgonquinArtCentre.com and AlgonquinPark.on.ca. Too much time in the woods I think!
I'll be at the Algonquin Art Centre this weekend from 11 to 3. Come say hi if you can. Plan to canoe Sat as well for a bit in memory of Tom.
