Summer Series V

Greetings!   

August is rolling along and we are enjoying the pace as we dive into the preparations for the launch of our upcoming exhibition season.  In studio and collections each week securing new works for the gallery -- we note that we are continually surrounded by great art.  The same is true with a visit to the gallery to catch the final weeks of our 5thYann Leroux annual Summer Series.  New works by Peter Mitchell, Yann Leroux and Scott Owles are on continual rotation to the walls, paired with signature works by other gallery artists.  Summer Series V runs until August 24th.

Special greetings to the new friends and art lovers we have met at the gallery in recent weeks.  We have noticed many collectors visiting from abroad and are happy that the neighbourhood of Yorkville has so much to offer.  Ingram Art News! is a wonderful way to stay in touch with your gallery.  We greatly appreciate the feedback you share and the requests we receive each month.  As in the past, please let us know about a specific feature, such as an artist profile, that you would like to see in future issues.

I paint what I dream, I draw what I know and I collage who I am.

Art has no middle ground. Either it works or it doesn't. Bad art is not the enemy, mediocre art is the enemy. 
- Harold Town (1924-1990), 1987
