Night Vision, Mixed Media on Canvas, 2006, 60 x 36″
Andrea Marcus
October 5 – November 1
The Toronto based artist, Andrea Marcus, is exhibiting her work at Gallery One. Apparantly colour and tone have been carried forward in these canvases and reflect Andrea’s love and observations of nature and the wilderness.
To anyone who gives a damn, my week has gone as follows “so far”:
Work: Holy moly… Super busy… I’m running around like a headless chicken… No complaints though; it’s enjoyable…
Health: I had food poisoning with the worst and most unmerciful bone ache and fever!!! No more calamari for me, thankyouverymuch… At least not for another year…
Reading (a.k.a. intellectual stimulation): I’m reading three books at the same time (typical ME!)…
“Kite Runner” is a great read… I’m halfway through… Quite inspiring I would say… “Chicken with Plums” (the author is my all time favorite black and white illustrator – I even had a conversation about her with a stranger on the train last night!)… Ahmad Shamlou‘s poems (cool, but maybe a bit too heavy while you’re suffering from food poisoning!)
Listening: Non-stop Tori Amos, as always! This week I’m obsessed with her album, “Little Earthquakes“… Keane‘s new album, “Under the Iron Sea” (like the rest of the Brit bands, I have a special affinity to them and their new work is quite special)
Shopping: I spent all my Indigo gift vouchers over books and CD’s (Chicken with Plums, Keane’s new CD, etc. etc.)… I also bought the coolest green hat e.v.e.r. from my favorite store at the Distillery District… Arghhh, can’t even remember the name of the store! Can I just say I currently hate calamari?!
C’est tout…
Laterz,
