I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my solo exhibition this year. For the first time I brought larger paintings and a wood sculpture, I did demos on site and took part in the buzz of the big Art Walk exhibition from a distance. If I have the opportunity, I will certainly do it again. I would also enjoy the next block leading into fall, or the one after. I’m thinking that snow capped mountains, large and small may be a good theme.
Back to my current exhibition and I’m sad to say it’s coming to a close. I will be at the Gallery Saturday morning taking down to make room for the next Artist. If you’re in the area and love one of the paintings, the time to buy is now before they are whisked off to other galleries. If you’re a distant fan, I can ship on Monday, to get ahead of the holiday rush.
I also do lay-aways, so you can place a deposit now and pay over time, which works well for larger pieces. If you’re in the area I will deliver anything over $1,000 personally and help you hang it.
If this exhibition has shown me anything, it’s that I’m on the right track with texture, simplification and abstract sculpture. I loved my piece, Cascade Kintsugi, which sold so fast I didn’t get a professional image.
I want to thank everyone who attended and especially all those who purchased even a $3 art postcard. it all goes to help me grow as an artist, allowing me to purchase more interesting supplies and cover the ever increasing expenses.
There are still a couple of days to rush in and see my work in person. Believe me, It’s nothing like seeing it online. The large pieces gain a sense of grandure and the smaller pieces gain a condensed intensity that is hard to imagine.
Sea Dean Annual Solo

Lake Country Coffee House

Lake Country BC Canada
7am - 4pm Daily
This year there were many large works including Oil, Acrylic, Mixed Media, Digital and 3D pieces. For the first time I felt connected to my solo exhibition because I continued to add and tweak leading up to Art Walk weekend. The public appearance also worked well, but next year I will work harder on promotion and signage, to bring people in from the road.
