Happy New Year!


Happy New Year to all my family, friends, and to all the supporters of me and my artwork!

As I hang a new calendar on the wall it is hard to believe a new year is already upon us. Looking back on the year, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their support. I had a very busy 2012 and was privileged to serve on the board of UAS working with the fundraising team, as well as undertaking a new role for Calgary Arts Development. Looking ahead to 2013, I am very excited about the upcoming year both personally and professionally!  Early this year, I will be exhibiting with fellow artist Andrea Lau, in the exhibition Two Views.  This show will take a non-traditional look at western landscape. Stay tuned more more details. Also thanks to Calgary 2012 GIG Grant, I will be presenting a solo exhibition Frozen Bow at the Untitled Art Society in March.  This exhibition will explore the small components of landscape, highlighting the natural beauty of the mighty Bow River. Meanwhile back in the studio, I am looking forward to devoting more time to studio practice and to continue my work painting on photograph as well as further the experimentation with photo base collage.

I hope you had a wonderful holiday, I wish you a happy and prosperous 2013!
Peace
Lisa Tornack
