Anonymous artwork revealed – 2019.10.31

IAD Anonymous Show – I had 3 fabric art pieces accepted into the annual International Artists Day Anonymous Show at 100 Braid St Studios in New Westminster BC. There were over 250 pieces of artwork, including oil & acrylic paintings, textile art, photography and mixed media pieces. The artwork is all 12 x 12 x 1.5” and all priced at $150. It’s hung so that the name of the artist is hidden until the art is sold. When an artwork is purchased, the art is removed from the display wall and the artist’s name revealed.

The art was on display from October 25 to 27, 2019, starting with a Gala Opening the evening of Friday, October 25th. I attended on the second night and took these photos of the show. You can see the amazing variety of styles and techniques. The gaps in the display grids are where art was removed as it sold.

Because it’s an anonymous show, I couldn’t reveal my 3 pieces until the show was over. I’m pleased to say the 2 pieces below were sold at the show – ‘Still Life in Fruit Bowl’ and ‘WOW Westminster Abstract 2’. The first one may look familiar – I made it a couple of months ago for the Curated Quilts B&W mini challenge. (I temporarily hid this post once it was accepted for the Anonymous show.)

And this is my 3rd piece, which didn’t sell at the show – ‘WOW Westminster Abstract 1’. Ironically, it’s the one I like the best. So it will be hung on my wall.
