"Fire: Destructive, Regenerative, Sacred" now open at ArtPod in Metchosin! The exhibitions runs from the 20th of March to the 3rd of May.

In honour of World Earth Day, ArtPod presents Fire: Destructive Regenerative Sacred, the third part of the continuing Elements Series.

A powerful force of change, fire represents both renewal and destruction, the sacred and profane, safety and danger, passion and loss. All living beings have a primal relationship with fire. How has fire impacted you? Maybe you think of destructive wildfires. Or sharing stories and songs around a campfire. This exhibit explores the elemental force of fire across all artistic media.

There's been quite a lot of paper and chaos over the last week, but I'm just about ready for hanging some of my work at Brighton Rocks Bar, in Kemptown, on Monday - which is exciting. #brighton #artshow #expressionistphotography

I decided to plan my next art show. I will be showing my landscape and plein air work. Here’s the twist: I specifically want this to be held in a public community building like a library or the Finley Center, or local government building. City hall or whatever. Because I really want this to be accessible to the general public, and a gallery sometimes makes people think they have to buy something.

I also think with the way our society is going we need to have community oriented things.

This may be odd because I actually do have a gallery connection and could set up a rental situation again but I can’t help but want this to be different right now.

I’m calling around Sonoma County to see if this could happen.
