Giving:
Sending "cheer mail" to isolated elders, through Calgary Seniors. Here, birthday cards and non-medical masks.
These cards are a sort of cut-out mobile birds that slot together in a simple way which hopfully elder hands can manage without too much difficulty. Because why not hang a tropical bird mobile in your home at the onset of the Canadian winter? I hope the sparks of colour and movement will bring joy.
Receiving:
It was the first time I put large work into this gallery, and this led to my first sale of a large abstract painting! You can see more images in this instagram post.
I receive a lot of love from the wonderful people who run Bluerock, and feel ever so grateful for the community which has embraced me here.

Thank you for your continued interest, dear Reader.
I hope you are managing, during this odd and changeable time, with some giving and receiving in your life and work also.
