Toronto City Hall Art Show artists

I know that the Toronto City Hall Art Show is finished and that is a relief to the many artists who display and sell their work at the show. As usual there was a spot of rain but not as bad as some years. I sincerely hope that all the artists met their artistic goals and hopefully financial as well. I am not sure how you can do well with so many artists; this was a much smaller show when I first went. Michael and I bought small pig figurines at the time, I did not see anything like that. Mugs are the only item that is economical and still one of a kind.

I did enjoy the show and here are a few of the many artists that I did manage to see:
I love fibre art although I am not very good at it, not enough hours in the day. Stephanie Ford Forrester creates wonderful tapestries and if I had the room and money, I would consider purchasing one of her works.




Alice Vander Vennen' s work appealed to me because she had a musical theme. Not sure if I would buy a piece but it was interesting to see where she was going with her ideas. Can you guess what musical idea she is trying to express here?



Adriana McNeely creates wonderful elegant jewellery and I wish that I had a great deal of extra money to spend on her creations. Oh well, another lifetime.
