Kaitlin Pirart, currently showing at Oso Negro, thick impasto acrylic flowers raised off wood panels.
Glossy, almost ceramic in appearance.
I like the technique.

In the spirit of introducing some of the more curious local artists, this one has her art hanging at "The Cantina" at the moment.
I found it ... curious.

And I saw this eating lunch at Mama Sita's in the Valley - curious little acrylic/watercolor (??) paintings of mushrooms.
For a bit I thought they were illustrations from a coloring book. Because the Valley. Nope. Anyways, they were interesting.
I was showing pictures of them to Chris and he was laughing, he wanted to buy the one of the mushrooms/planets/dinosaur climbing moonbeam. Because.
And I understand.
Anyways - you can find her work here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057544416080&sk=photos
I think I'm going to make it a regular thing to start featuring some of the more obscure artists of the area, in a non-judgmental way, because there are hundreds, and some of their work is every bit as interesting or inspiring as that art that I admire. Just in a very different way...

The days are scintillating and bright on the lake, warm-ish in the sun but still a month or so from spring.
Bright blue skies and freezing nights, every night now a different location, place to sleep and wake every morning in a different location along the lake, this - the taste of freedom, freedom...man of the Valley, morning coffee in Kaslo, Nelson, Balfour, on mornings I don't open as far away as Rossland, and just because, just because I can.
