Selling Focus Art Calendars at Cornwall Square

2009-08-24T23:59:00.002-04:00

If you check your email-box, you should have a schedule of time slots where help is needed at Cornwall Square to sell calendars. Here's a note from D'Arcy, Focus Art's President;

Hi Everyone

Here we go again, I am looking for volunteers to help sell the calendars at Cornwall Square. We will be on the second floor in front of the food court for the first two Friday/Saturdays and at the bottom of the escalator for the last Friday/Saturday. Again, we should have at least two people there at all times, more would be better.

They will give us a table but we need to bring our own chairs etc. We are also allowed to have some of our people working on something while we are there so anyone who would like to do that, please let me know.

A lot of members took time to help during the show, we put on a terrific exhibition and had a lot of fun doing it, now it is time to reap the rewards for all that hard work. The public loved us so the potential for sales is terrific, all we need to do is just be there to take advantage of this venue again. Please check your schedules and do what you can to be involved and help make this another great success for Focus Art.

Thanks

D'Arcy

2009-08-24T14:36:00.002-04:00

News from Adele:

"Adele Constantineau is again exhibiting a few of her paintings at the St Andrews library in the Heritage building behind the school. It is a liberating exercise for her as she does not easily expose her work outside of family and friends."

Focus Art have been invited to participate in the Cornwall Farmers Market which is located in George Assaly Laneway Pitt St between 2nd & 3rd Streets. The season began May 16th and runs to Oct 31.

The market is open every Sat. morning from 8am. To 1.pm..

1 stall (10x10) = $25.00/day or $100.00/month paid to Farmer's Market in advance.
1 stall (10x20) = $40.00/day or $160.00/month paid to farmer's Market in advance.

Artists interested could double up and this would defray the costs It appears to be a very good venue, and the committee for Farmers Market are committed to make this an annual event, so far the advertising has been exceptional.

There is a one time membership fee of $35.00 which Focus Art could take on with the understanding that our banner and advertizing material be displayed. Before we commit to this we must have assurances from at least 10 artists in Focus Art that they are definitely interested this venue.

If you are interested contact me, Pat Campbell at patcamp@live.com before next weekend..

Someone Else We Need to Thank ....

2009-05-09T08:49:00.003-04:00

There is someone in Focus Art who does an incredible amount of work behind the scenes. She works incredibly hard for us and most of us have never even seen her! The lady I'm talking about is D'Arcy's wife, Sherry.

Thanks for all you do for us Sherry!

What Happened at the May 6 Meeting?

2009-05-09T07:34:00.019-04:00

D’Arcy opened the meeting at 7:15, welcoming the crowd of members and new people. He introduced Karen Burns, who was given two great rounds of applause by everyone. Karen is the reason we were at Cornwall Square and she told us that they had received "a ton" of good responses from the public about our exhibition and Calendar Show. (Photo to the left shows D'Arcy speaking to our hero, Karen, after the show.)

Cornwall Square has been very generous to Focus Art members - giving us this venue free of charge, advertising in the papers free of charge, advertising on the radio free of charge and advertising on their billboard outside free of charge. They provided the chairs and tables for the General Meeting, free of charge, and they’ve done everything to make Focus Art's stay there a fantastic experience. Focus Art and it’s members cannot thank Cornwall Square enough.

Many thanks to Tim Horton’s of the Square for supplying us with coffee and timbits at no charge for the meeting.

The expected closing will be on Saturday (May 9) instead of Sunday, as Sunday is Mother’s Day. So, all artwork must be picked up on Saturday, May 9, 2009 before 5:30. D’Arcy says that anything left afterwards becomes his and he will not apologize for taking it home. ;-)

It was also discussed briefly that during upcoming school holidays, when kids are running around - such as March Break, etc, we could create some workshops at the Square in which would involve children making art with us. There is good potential for other exercises.

Certificates were handed out to the artists of the Twelve Chosen Calendar Paintings as each artist stood and presented their artwork to the group - and also posed for a photograph to be taken by Adele, who was the official photographer of the event. (Even though D’Arcy assured Deb that she wouldn’t have to do this beforehand when questioned about the "standing and presenting" part of his email notice. But she *did* survive the ordeal.) Brunhilde and Jane were absent.

Sales of the calendars will be in September and will be held at Cornwall Square.

Bernie Carriere gave an excellent talk on photography. Bernie is a fairly new member and teaches both philosophy and photography at the Cornwall Public Library. Call the Library in August if you’re interested in attending the classes in September. Currently, they are being held free of charge.

Bernie explained many of the basic guidelines in photography. Breaking the rules makes a great photograph but you have to know the rules to break. Another thought Bernie shared was that what you have in your head is more important that what’s in your hands. He also explained lenses, telephotos vs. zooms, and cleaning them, as well as the three most important accessories you can buy for your camera - tripod, polarizing filter and a lens shade. Many thanks to Bernie for the very interesting talk! If you’d like to learn more about using your camera, take Bernie’s classes in September!

The 50 / 50 draw was won by Micheline Tanguay, who took home $36.00.

After the meeting, Bonnie Baker of Seaway Custom Framing provided quite a few brushes, mats and markers for everyone to take as samples. Thanks very much, Bonnie! Bonnie is also a new member to Focus Art. (Seaway Custom Frames is located at 14705 County Rd. 2, Ingleside. If you'd like Bonnie's telephone number, contact me.)

Next meeting will be held as usual at the Centre Charles-Emile Claude on Chevrier.

Below are several shots of the winners receiving their certificates and presenting their paintings to the group.

See you soon,

Deb

Update on Family Art Day at the Park

2009-05-09T07:30:00.004-04:00

Family Art Day @ the Park: Sunday July 26 1-4p.m.
to be held @ Lamoureux Park around the bandshell .

As the featured attraction, Focus Art Association members will be the main contributor for this new city event. It will be advertised in tourist literature, etc. Therefore, if we have enough artists who respond to this email invitation by May 18th , then Focus Art will approach the city coordinator for the go ahead. Possibly other groups could follow; The chess group has shown interest in participating.

Let's make ART visible again in Cornwall!

Artists are invited to set up their own individual space to interact with children with their given medium of choice. This is an interactive set-up not a display of art wares only. Each participating artist must comply to this venue to be engaged with the children visiting their set-up table. The same rules regarding vending apply here as @ the Square. No sales on the premises.

Please contact Charlene for further info or to sign up. *** Include your name and a brief description of your activity. If participation is/not satisfactory in numbers an email will be sent on May 21 following the executive meeting of May 20th.

*** If you don't have Charlene's address, contact Deb for it. It's not being posted here to save Charlene from being spammed.

The Twelve Chosen

2009-05-02T21:10:00.016-04:00

The results for the 12 chosen artworks to appear on the 2010 were supposed to be revealed at the May 6 meeting but the local newspaper, Standard Freeholder, wanted to publish them. Since we don't often get exposure from them, the names were released.

I have 12 very low quality shots that I've cropped from shots I took at the show. I'm warning you now that they are not good quality, but if you want great quality, buy the calendar! It'll be on sale in the fall. Cornwall Square has already agreed to let us set up a table and sell them in the mall.

If I can get small shots of each from the official photographer, I will replace these. (And to be fair, I did not include the shot I have on file of my own, but rather kept it as a cropped one - same as the others. Is that not noble or what???)

Congratulations to the 12 public-voter-chosen pieces of art. Actually, it's congratulations to everyone who exhibited - the walls were filled with very fine art! All of which was shown to a very many people!!

Here, in numerical order, are the calendar pieces;

Cornwall Square Show

2009-04-29T23:24:00.003-04:00

The Cornwall Square Show is coming together beautifully. I was there today to drop off my paintings and again tonight to make sure there were enough volunteers. It is looking great! Larger paintings and all formats are making for an even better show than the Calendar Show. (And I wouldn't have thought that possible!)

There is awesome work there! Go see it! Add your's to it if you haven't put anything in yet.

Volunteers are needed urgently. It's only four hours for each time slot and we're flexible. Let's not let this fade out (which is going to happen if we don't get more volunteers) - let's keep it alive. Members are urged to volunteer to make this a success!

During the Calendar Show, we had over 2,2o0 people go through. (More if you include the non-voters.) A few hours of volunteer time is a small price to pay for this kind of exposure to your work.

Contact D'Arcy and let him know when you are available. See your email box for the schedule.

I'll post pics tomorrow of the show.

Another Show! Starting Immediately!

2009-04-28T21:22:00.003-04:00

It is official, Cornwall Square loves us! The public’s response has been so positive that Focus Art has been invited to return to the same locale at Cornwall Square and exhibit from April 29th to May 9th.

This will be different from the first exhibit because it will not be limited to "landscape" format (as was needed for the Calendar). It will allow all our members to exhibit a broader range of work - anything, any format.

Until we know how many people can put something in (and you all should!), it is limited to 2 medium size paintings/works or 1 big painting/work. D'Arcy would like to see everyone put something in, especially the members that did not exhibit during the calendar show. It is also strongly suggested that you put in different work than was exhibited in the Calendar Show. This will make the show different and more interesting for guests coming back for more eye candy.

We plan to have some of our members actually working on their art at the Square, so the public can see our new artwork and we can show them what we can do. All members have another chance to really promote their work, so don't miss this opportunity!

This is a members only "Open" exhibit.

Deb (with excerpts from D'Arcy's group announcements)

Calendar Show Winner

2009-04-28T21:00:00.003-04:00

In D'Arcy's words,

Focus Art is pleased to report on the overwhelming response from the public at our most recent exhibit held in the Cornwall Square. The "Public’s Choice" of the 12 best works of Focus Art’s members for our 2010 calendar brought in a total of 2,207 votes and we thank everyone sincerely for participating.

Mrs. Claire Lacroix, from Alexandria, was the winner of an original watercolour painting by Alan Bain. This was the first time we have opened this exhibit and choice of artworks to the public and we have received high praise and great encouragement for doing it.

We must share these accolades with the staff of Cornwall Square, without their support none of this would have been possible. We would like to thank: Chris Savard, General Manager, for authorizing the use of the space; Karen Burns, Marketing Director, for arranging all lease details and operations with personnel; Kim Villeneuve for administrative support and Mall Security for their assistance.

Following is a photo of (left) Alan Bain, artist of the watercolour, (centre) Claire Lacroix, winner of the watercolour and (right) D'Arcy Thorpe, president of Focus Art.

Calendar Show!

The Calendar Show is into its fourth day and is a very resounding success! If (as a member), you didn't put any artwork into the show show, you are missing a fantastic amount of exposure to the community!

Saturday was the first day open to the public and 454 ballots were filled in. Sunday's totals have been reported as 177 ballots. (I'll put Monday's totals here as soon as I receive them from D'Arcy.)

Speaking as one of the volunteers who worked Sunday, there was an incredible amount of people who enjoyed the display. Many didn't even know we had an art group in Cornwall and many didn't realize the display was all local talent. But everyone who voted enjoyed the process of chooosing their twelve favourites and helping to decide on the content of our next calendar. Rose, Adele, Bernie Lauzon, myself and Bernie Carriere (who graciously 'rolled up his sleeves' on-the-spot and filled in) all had a great time talking to so many people about art.

By allowing us the use of this large store, Cornwall Square has given us a great opportunity and we owe them many thanks!

Calendar Exhibition Details

2009-04-04T12:32:00.007-04:00

More news about the Calendar Exhibition;

The dropoff date will be April 17 from 9:30 am to 9 pm.
Public exhibition (and voting) will be from April 18 to the 25 during the mall hours.
Pickup date will be April 26.

We will be exhibiting in the old Blue Jeans store situated at the top of the escalator on the right hand side. This is a large store with lots of hanging possibilities! This is an excellent venue to have your work viewed as we were told that on average, they have 68,000 to 71,000 people a week come to the Square. That’s really good exposure!

You may enter as many pieces as you wish. There is a $5 entry fee for each piece entered. You must be a member to enter. (If you're not a member, now is a great time to join!) Since the calendar is limited to twelve months, each member may only have ONE entry in the calendar. If several pieces of yours were to win the highest votes, only the one with the highest number of votes would be put on the calendar and the others would receive an honourable mention. Then, the next qualifying artist would be put on the calendar. All members that enter work that is not part of the top 12 chosen will have honourable mention on the back cover of the calendar.

Hooks will be provided but ALL paintings MUST be ready to hang with wire across the back. (Hooks on the back of your painting will not be accepted - there must be wire to easily and safely hang paintings on the walls.)

The format for this calendar will be the same as the format we've used in previous years (NOT last year's format). To be considered for the calendar, a landscape format is required. Otherwise there is just too much white space on the pages. So try to use a ration of 1:1.5. (i.e. it should be 1.5 times wider than it is high.)

Any sculpture/ mixed media must be of reasonable size for the venue. Work that requires a "pedestal" mount will be the responsibility of the artist and must also be of reasonable size for the venue.

Because this will be a "general public" show representing Focus Art, all work is subject to scrutiny for offensive content. Racist, Sexist, Obscene or Pornographic subject matter will not be tolerated regardless of "artistic licence" and can be rejected on those grounds

Each person may vote once. Any duplicate votes will be disqualified. Members may also vote once.

Alan Bain is donating one of his beautiful paintings as a prize. All voters (members and the public) are eligible for this draw. Many thanks to Alan for his generosity.

During mall hours / exhibition hours, we will have at least two members of Focus Art in the store at all times watching over the venue and to act as ambassadors of Focus Art to promote our group. Please volunteer your time for this. It doesn't have to be a full day - all we need is a few hours at best if everyone was to help out in this respect. Contact D’Arcy Thorpe at your earliest convenience to give him possible hours you can volunteer. You may 'sit' with a friend if you wish. Just let us know the times.

You must have your own insurance on your work if you so desire. Focus Art is not responsible for your artwork.

This is important - absolutely NO sales may be made during the exhibition and / or on the premises. This must be strictly adhered to. If any sales were to be made, we would then have to pay Cornwall Square rent and commissions. As it is, Cornwall Square is donating this space to us for exhibition purposes only. If you have any sales interest in your work, you can sell it OFF the premises. Artists exhibiting can leave contact information at the venue for sale purposes at another time and place after the exhibit.

On Saturday the 25th of April, all winners will be photographed.

I think I've included all the rules discussed at the meeting. If anyone has any more to add, please contact me and I'll post them here immediately.

Thanks,

Deb

Important notice to all members!!!!

2009-03-20T17:57:00.001-04:00

Focus Art will be having an exhibition of our Art in the Cornwall Square in mid April (details will follow). This show is to choose the paintings or sculpture that will be featured in the Calendar. We will have the format used in previous years (not last year) to create a calendar that we will all be proud of, so start dusting off or finishing up that perfect painting to be hung in the show.
One detail to consider we will only accept “Landscape Format” paintings (wider than high). Last year it was too difficult to fit the images into the space allowed to best show off the image.

Within a week you will have all the details of when, where and so forth so stay tuned!!

Don’t forget that the next meeting of Focus Art is on April 1st, and that is the Annual General Meeting, we will be saying thank-you to our current president and appointing a new president to lead us on so please try to attend.

Easter Panels at The Cornwall Library

2009-03-20T09:47:00.001-04:00

PRESS RELEASE

Come share the vision of 12 Regional Artists who have united and ventured forward with a theme, courage and creativity to create Art for the community.

Join us for the unveiling of the Easter Panels at The Cornwall Library in the upstairs meeting room, April 5, 1-3:30 p.m. Come share the stories with the Artists ( Jocelyn Nicholson, Rachel Bourgon, Rose Desnoyers, Tracy-Lynn Chisholm, Adele Constantineau, Mi-Sun Hunter-Kim, Denise Desjardins, Pat Campbell, Jacqueline Milner, Sandra Taylor, Derek Hunter & Micheline Tanguay) who participated in creating this original work of sacred art for the community. The panels (three pieces 17" x 48") will be on display in the front display cases of the Library from April 6-29 following the opening.

Each artist had the panels for a predetermined amount of time in order to add their creative inspiration to the panels keeping in mind the theme, the contributions already added to the panels and those artists yet to contribute. The resulting panels will be donated to Holy Trinity Catholic Secondary School after their time at the Library.

We invite the community to meet with the Artists at the vernisage. The Artists welcome the opportunity to discuss their experience with those in attendance. This is a family friendly event.

For further information about this project,
kindly contact Jacqueline Milner 613-931-9090 or Rose Desnoyers 613-931-1194

Our Facebook Page is up!

You can click here to see it!

It was suggested by Lorne Taillon that a facebook page would be a great online tool for us so we now have one.

Not much there yet, but I'm working on it! If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I"m not that much into Facebook.

Blogs, Websites and Links

2009-03-05T22:15:00.003-05:00

Hi,

I'm taking care of the blog for Sandra and have been setting up a few different things on it.

One of the things you may have noticed is the list of links on the right sidebar. Each member who has a website or webpage listed on the Focus Art website has been listed here. Also, if you have a blog, let me know and I'll post it here also. All sites, pages and blogs will be included for members only. You can send me your info at focusartblog@yahoo.ca

Or, if you want to be deleted, you can let me know that, too.

The blog is interactive so if you have any comments you'd like to appear on it, just use the link below the post.

A question I'm often asked is why have a blog AND a website? A website is like having your own permanent online art gallery. You post finished artwork there like you'd hang the artwork in a gallery, changing it if you like, but it's always there to be seen.

A blog, on the other hand, is not the same thing. It's more like your studio - a place where people can come and watch you work, see unfinished pieces, talk and hear about your thoughts on the painting being worked on.

While a gallery provides a permanent display, a blog's posts keep rolling down.

Blogs are free! Why not create one today? When you do, let me know and I'll post it here!

Stretching W/C Paper on Wood Stretchers

2009-03-05T21:23:00.021-05:00

Another feature of our March meeting was Rose Desnoyers giving us an awesome demonstration of stretching watercolour paper onto wood stretchers and supports. Rose explained that some of her students couldn't afford to frame their watercolours for a student show so she taught them how to stretch their paper onto wood supports and then varnish them, thus eliminating the need for glass and expensive frames.

She showed us how she prepares the wood supports / stretchers to avoid damage to the paper and how she applies the paper.

It was a fun night.

Thanks Rose!!

Oh, and here's a pic of Rose with her "every self-respecting artist should have one" bag of tools. (Which impressed all of us!)

Lorne Taillon Talks With Focus Art

2009-03-05T20:52:00.005-05:00

At our March meeting (held on March 4, 2009), we were fortunate to have Lorne Taillon come and speak with us. Lorne is the Leisure Arts Coordinator for the City. The three topics that were discussed at length were:

1) Arts in the Park. Focus Art artists will be able to set up shop and paint in the park on arranged dates. The goal is to boost family activities in the park during events. Having local artists painting during these events will provide a great opportunity for exposure for the artists involved. It will also provide visitors to the events with the opportunity to watch the artists at work and to see their work that could be on display. More to follow on this topic.

2) Art Fair. The possibility of an Art Fair is getting closer! It was suggested that an Art Fair could coincide with music in the park, providing a really nice background. Lorne was very receptive to the idea of an Art Fair.

3) Art Instructors needed. The city provides summer (and fall, etc.) programs for children and often needs instuctors to teach painting, etc. Lorne will contact Sandra when needed and Sandra will put the call out to Focus Art. Instructors will be paid the City's usual rate. Lorne is also interested in a Call for Papers - workshop or class ideas provided by local artists that may be brought into fruition.

It's really nice to have a City coordinator who wants to work with our group!

Thanks Lorne!

For all you Members that missed the meeting on October 1, 2008 you also missed meeting artist Andrea Warren who showed us all the many products that Golden Paints has to offer including the new and exciting OPEN paint which has a slow drying process. Although it is still quicker drying than Oil paint it now takes up to 12 hours before it is hard enough to not be able to activate and rework (cool)

You also missed out in receiving free samples of many of the products shown at the demo. Too bad!

Deb Leger has taken first place (aka Member's Choice) award in the latest Flower of the Month Show at EBSQart, a group in which she is a lifetime member. The Flower of the Month Show in question was Begonias. Deb's photograph, called Fiery Heart was a macro shot. While usually entering paintings in the EBSQart shows, this time she entered a photograph. This is Deb's seventh ribbon at EBSQart and it also included a $50 cash prize. Her EBSQart portfolio may be seen at http://www.blogger.com/ while her website can be seen at http://www.deborahlegerartist.com/ .

What is EBSQart? EBSQart is a large online 'colony' of artists. The home page can be found at http://www.ebsqart.com/ . There are two ways you can join, either as a patron member (which is free) or as an artist member (which costs $7.50 per month, or $78.00 per year). Membership as a patron gives you voting rights at the site in the (at least) three shows held every month. Membership as an artist member gives you your own url pages for an online portfolio, access to the online community of EBSQart, access to the many shows, etc. In EBSQart's own words, "EBSQ Self-Representing Artists is not your typical artists' website. We're passionate about empowering artists, and we hope it shows! To that end, we've combined an online arts community atmosphere with easy-to-use tools that we've developed in-house to give our artists the edge via DIY Marketing. Members can have an online presence within minutes of joining, and have access to resources that come from being part of a community of our size. We think you'll enjoy the difference!"
