Covid-19 has changed all our lives. I am thankful that I have remained well, but long to return to normal activities like visiting with friends and family, and travelling for art and pleasure.
While self-isolating in Port Hope I have been working in my studio daily. In 2020 I produced Other Echoes, a collection of works on paper examining home and memory.
Early in 2021 I completed the Canadian part of The Tangled Garden a large, long-term garden wall project. Hopefully in the future I will have the opportunity to travel and develop the imagined two remaining walls.
My annual summer canoe trip with the other artists of the Gibson Girls, was cancelled and our exhibition in Vilnius, Lithuania was postponed until 2022. The mail art exchange project we were to exhibit, Where I'm at Now: A Conversation in Art has continued and provided some solace and connection. Go to our newly launched website gibsongirlsart.com to see the growing collection of collaborative postcards created by the group. Follow our activities and the project on instagram @5gibsongirls.

Mexico
I was in Mexico from November 2022 until early April 2023 where I walked empty beaches early in the morning, worked in my garden until mid-day and in my studio in the afternoon.
Adrift
Solo exhibition at CMS Projects on Artsy.net October 26 - November 29, 2022.
Adrift echoes the quiet, contemplative experience of watching the shifting compositions of objects within water along shorelines. Whether in a canoe on a river, sitting on a dock by a lake or resting by tide pools in Mexico, the arrangement and rearrangement of natural forms calms and allows the mind to drift.
Thinking explored in the work includes similarity and difference in repetition within collection, spatial positioning and meaning, and notions of personal identification with objects in place.

Longevity: The Japanese Paper Place 40th Anniversary Juried Exhibition
November 14 - December 10, 2022.
The Japanese Paper Place,
1-103 The East Mall, Toronto
416-538-9669 www.japanesepaperplace.com
My print I, myself was chosen for the Longevity exhibition.
Many thanks to Nancy Jacobi of the Japanese Paper Place for providing fine Japanese paper to artists for 40 Years!
I, myself responds to a burl of wood that is part of a collection gathered while walking within woodlands and along shores. Individual natural objects in the collection provide a portrait of a time and place as well as an opening to other memories within the sensuous curves of the forms.
I, myself
