I donated this today: a calendar, 12 original gift tags and 6 original cards. Wonder how much it’ll get. I donated to this charity 3 years ago. We’ll know next Sunday! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🙏🏻☺️

Adventures In Art #9-Juried Exhibition Acceptance In Pincher Creek, Alberta 😳😀
I received this email on October 7! 😳😀
Dear Bob,
Thank you for submitting to the Allied Arts Council of Pincher Creek's Members Exhibition. The jury met this afternoon to review submissions. Due to the amount and sizes of the submissions, they decided to allow 1 piece per artist to the show.
And so on Thursday I drove back to Fort Macleod and then Lee and I dropped it off at The Lebel on Friday! The picture they wanted was of the barn I did in Willie’s class this summer but I sold it in Fort Quappelle! Luckily they had a back-up (“Gully Or Ditch!”) and I still had it, so that one will hang with 18-20 other artists in the gallery there from November 4-December 20. I took all by other big paintings as well as 6 northern lights cards to sell in their gift shop! They also had interest in more things too!
I will admit to be pretty excited about this and can’t wait to see it on display. There’s a reception on November 29 but I probably won’t go back for it, as I’ll be able to see it when I go through on my way to San Diego in December.
Lucky me! ☺️

OMG…Tofino!
Amazeballs here! I added a day to my stay. Found a fantastic Air B and B, run by a “flotsam artist”! 😜.
Tacofino, salmon, Chesterman Beach, Long Beach and a full on rainy day.

What a day! Again, what a day!
Met Joe Bembridge in his gallery (Merrick Gallery) after hitting the art supply story (it was around the corner!) He sells Kathy Bradshaw pieces!
