we are heirs to the glimmering world

Our daughter April's first solo exhibition opens tomorrow in downtown Montreal. We are very proud of her and know that the show will be fantastic. The gallery is in the Belgo building, one of Montreal's most important venues for contemporary art.

The image in this photo is of the reverse side of the quilt she made over the summer. I showed photos of her painting this silk fabric last June. Click here to re-visit those.

Also, please read her artist statement and see a sample of her art by clicking here.
