The evolution of a portrait of @RebeccaRaw!

I started this portrait of the INCREDIBLE Rebecca Rawlinson for my June 23rd art event: It was then worked on by attendees the night of the event: We then auctioned it off with proceeds going to the development of my youth program, under the premise that I would later finish it- which I did tonight!

The portraits. Foreshadowing of the next large art event: a take on the Inside Out Project. Another #massarttherapysession!

The art event as a huge success and is now a catalyst for bringing more of these happenings to Vancouver. It left attendees hungry for more creative and interactive art experiences.

The most popular piece of the night… from the Frida series. #arttherapy

Last night, it was very liberating to share, for the first time, my most personal pieces, The Frida Series. This series (still in progress) is my own art therapy. UPDATE APRIL 2011: this piece now resides with Rebecca Rawlinson!

She was amazing- my host @RebeccaRaw (5 min portrait no. 32)

I will be posting in detail all about last night’s art event all this weekend, but right now I have to thank Rebecca Rawlinson for making it an event of a lifetime! To have such support, love and leadership from someone so incredible took the pressure off me and let me enjoy the night fully…

Lost paintings, emptying the vault, clearing the mind for live #artevent

No idea if these pieces still exist! Even though I have a ton of stuff filling an expensive storage room, my moods and moves tend to purge artwork ruthlessly. It’s freeing to get rid of them, but then when I find them on an old CD, I get a twinge of regret. I’m preparing for…
