....An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.
::: James Whistler :::

Dear Friends of the Arts,

Fall In Love With Art - Group Exhibit. Featuring the works of an eclectic mix of local Vancouver Island Artists. Works in glass and copper, paper and cedar, photographic giclees, ink, paper and painting.

Included in this exhibit are works created by the participants at this year's Annual Alberni Valley Paint Out.

Living Proof - Sketches from Life on display in the month of December. The featured Artists are the explorer spirits of our Life Drawing workshop. These courageous artists are allowing their work-in-progress to be viewed unaltered and unfinished.

Life Drawing is about viewing the human form through the raw emotion of your own gestures. It's all about capturing the spirit within. Whether it's the opportunity of seizing a spectacular moment in time or the thrill of catching an emotion at its best. In one brief second, we have the opportunity to experience that moment, the excitement is sharing that with you!

This Fall/Winter we are pleased to feature works by - Lucas Chickite, Cecil Dawson, Lily Finlayson, Gerda Hofman, John Hofman, Gordon James, Mae Le Blanc, Davyd Oram, John Stuart Pryce, Todd Robinson and Cat Thom.

Also included in this exhibit are works created by the participants at this year's 'Annual Alberni Valley Paint Out'

DRAW Gallery offers Artists working in Sculpture, Painting, Printmaking, Photography, Video, Sound and Performance an opportunity to share ideas and present new works.

Our curators work with emerging Artists to grow a vision towards developing an exhibit that reflects their spirit of creation to share with and delight their audience.

From advice for Marketing Art, Art Workshops and personal Portfolio Consultations, we endeavour to assist the Artist in developing a professional approach to exhibiting their work.
