Moving to the Bergstrom Block

Moving to the Bergstrom Block is still not finished. The clean-up is tedious so I tend to avoid it. But David has hung my paintings on the walls and changes the painting in the window. Again it is with fresh eyes, that my work being noticed. I still don't want to sell my work. The reason has become very clear when I saw the Alberta Foundation of the Arts e museum web site. My drawing, called "Sunshine" has faded beyond recognition. Two other works were lost in a fire, the people were safe.
I watched Mary Pratt on You Tube saying all the art she sells is still hers. Lovely to consider that many of the people who own your work disappear from your life, and companies, like Nova Corp, Standard Bank and people I didn't know, who bought art from Galleries. Where is the art? So let me just say that these paintings are like my children, yes they are grown up but I need them close.
