In my last post, I showed a glimpse of the 3 artworks I submitted to the International Artists Day (IAD) Anonymous Festival, at 100 Braid St Studios in New Westminster BC.
I’m happy to say that one of my pieces sold at the Opening Gala on Thursday night, so I can now show it here.
‘WOW Westminster with Dots’ is a photo of a local New Westminster public art installation – WOW Westminster – that I digitally enhanced, printed on fabric, fused to felt and machine-quilted. Then I wrapped it on a stretched canvas.
If this looks familiar, it’s because this is one of my favorite landmarks in New Westminster, and it has been featured in several of my artworks, including one the pieces I submitted in last year’s IAD Anonymous show. I started with the same photo, but used very different digital editing tools.
On Friday night, I went to see the show. The art was hung so the name of the artists are hidden. When an artwork is purchased, the art is removed from the display wall and the artist’s name revealed.
The show is on display today until 5pm. Next week, if my pieces haven’t been sold, they will be returned to me. So I’ll post more next week about how I made them.
Thanks for stopping by. Today, I’m linking up with these blogs – click on the links below, where you’ll find many other creative and inspirational projects.

Congratulations on selling your art!! I see some on those walls that I would love to have!!
That is so interesting, and so completely different from last year’s piece. It’s a shape that offers many alternatives, and both of these are exceptional.
