Lust and Poverty

Two Group shows this Month, one is 101 frames at gallery 101 on Bank Street opening December 6th, it's a charity exhibit with framed art being auctioned off. This year's theme is LUST. These are my pieces:

"Pickle Parts the Meat Curtains"
frame is 5x5
pen and paper.



"Beaver Rides the Rocket"
frame is 5x6
pen and paper




The second show is also a charity show for Amnesty International. Disposable cameras were handed out to artists, photographers, and the homeless. We were asked to take photos of poverty and how it affects our lives. I took this photo of Eddie a mentally challenged man that is well known in and around my work. He runs errands around Rideau Street for tips.
