SUMMARY:Art With Attitude Artshow
DESCRIPTION:Show Times: 10am – 5pm\, daily \nExhibition Details: This show is two collections of C F Parker’s recent art. Decades of making art stand behind the creation of these two collections. One is a series of watercolour & ink work\, and a few copperplate etchings\, based on hundreds of hours spent in the forest and beaches of the BC West Coast. They are expressive representational art\, founded on a deep love of vibrant coast.\nThe second collection is larger pieces\, mostly acrylic on canvas\, exploring the energies and patterns and connections of the coastal forest. Often the ordinary is presented from a new perspective. This work is full of colour\, energy and depth. It is a joy to be able to share these images with the public.\nA wide selection of my work as 5″ x 7″ greeting cards will also be available. \nParticipants: Corinne Parker
