A new gallery in Niagara-on-the-Lake

I have just visited a beautiful art gallery in Niagara on the Lake.  

King St Gallery

It looks like a sweet, simple spot from the outside but inside I was amazed to find art pieces that were both captivating and inspiring.  The gallery has a nature theme with art that invites you to breathe deeply as you go from piece to piece.



I have two TAE Trees there on consignment: Heritage alive

TAE Tree: Heritage Alive

TAE Tree: Heritage Alive

TAE Tree: Heritage Alive

TAE Tree: Heritage Alive

and Living Branch: (Photo to come... I hope)

Both pieces tell a similar theme - persevering through trials and difficulty.  Living branch has tree trunk that has died - and there is one branch that has grown strong to become the tree.  It tells of incredible loss but also an unexpected thriving.  

Heritage alive tells a similar story.  An ancient tree remains alive even though much of the tree has been lost.  Two branches continue the heritage

Stop in for a visit if you are in the area and let me know what you thought:

This is a cute little tree.  I was trying a new style - and I like the effect.  It looks like it is stuck not only in the wind, but also the rain! Another new piece actually breaks the rules of Bonsai by having two branches come out at the same height on the trunk.  I've called it Life Over Death.  It sits on a fossilized rock and is continuing, persevering, growing, in spite of tragedy.  The last tree I'm going to show has been a long time in coming.  It has been like a wild beast, not wanting to look nice and tame - ready to find a new home.  It seemed happy to sit comfortably ...

Tree Story: a Life Program

Image
 Hi everyone, I want to let you know about a fun project I have been working on.  For now, I am calling it:   Tree Story: a Life Program .     This hybrid learning experience pulls together components of an academic course, life coaching, and an art workshop into one holistic program .  Here are a few benefits of taking this program:      It can help direct your personal life goals.      It can help you find your voice and use it in the world.      It can prepare you for greater life involvement.     It can empower you to grow with people different from you.     It can give you something to share with others - your story expressed in art.
