It’s the last day for N22 Open Studios!
For today only I’m offering 10% off marked prices on any framed artworks. I will not offer this again after today. If you can, pop into my studio to take a look in person, photos don’t do my work justice. If you can’t visit but there is a painting you’d like drop my a DM.
Maybe choose to buy from small business and art instead of Black Friday coming up!
If you’re at a loss for things to do today I highly recommend paying us a visit. We even had a mention in @timeoutlondon 🥳
Over 100 artists showing their work in their studios. So much variety and loads of other things happening. @bluehouseyard is right next to my studio with @citizensartldn and @ludoslondon for visiting after!

Come see this painting at my open studio and art sale Nov 19 & 20, 2022 in Almonte. Tickets are free and you can order them by using the link in my insta bio or from my website. So on to my progress with Johnny Cash… I hadn’t trotted for about 6 weeks on him. I was away and then my trainer was away and I thought I should really nail down how to keep my hands quiet and learn how to steer him properly before I try and take it up to a trot. It’s bizarre that I’ve taken lesson for so long yet steering a horse still confuses me. Well this week I made some really good connections and me being much more quiet with my hands has Johnny being a much happier horse. I’m feeling happy I bought a horse this week. 😂😂😂 next week though, I could be back to saying why did I buy a horse!!!!! #orangeaesthetic #turquoise #openstudios #artsale #thingstodoinottawa #art4sale #host #artgalleries #artshop #artshareandsupport #lorimirabelli #mississippimills #carletonplace #perthontario (at Ottawa, Ontario)

Middle of the night, after the show.
It was good. Lots of people came. But i was not having the best ‘use your words’ day, and trying to do charades for ‘current threat of eroding biodiversity’ was the sign post I needed to know that live steaming was not on the cards for the day.
The feedback was all very positive. For years, I’d get that awkward people trying to be polite but not really knowing what to say, look. But I used to paint crime scenes and brain MRI’s & some of my nightmares both in slumber and real.
The best bit was the quiet before. The sitting and looking at all these big beautiful women I’d created over the last 6 months. The other 2 walls of work in progress. (One is waiting for the 3rd on the series to be done & the other 3 I need to add the AR element).
A couple Times i had to leave. Too many people, too much noise & I just couldn’t. But I put snacks out & people just got in with it.
Got chance to meet some very cool & talented & lovely artists. So, yeah. All good. But so looking forward to having super quiet closed door for a little while, unless you want to pop by for a cup of tea…
Another best bit. My teenage box hung thé show. He followed my graphic math, got up a ladder with the tools & was just super duper about it. The same little boy that used to sit and try to teach me to paint rainbows many a year ago.
