Au Naturel - A Celebration of the Human Form

Less than 2 weeks left to see my latest group show "Au Naturel"! If you're in the Pickering (ON, Canada) area, take some time to see some great local artists (including myself). The show is at Silverstone Gallery in the lovely Nautical Village on Liverpool Road. "Au Natural" is a showcase of some beautiful nudes by some of the best artists in Durham Region, and it ends on October 28th so get out there! Thanks for visiting, and here are some photos from opening night:

Workshop Update

Something unexpected happened in my quest to teach. I originally planned a very short workshop to start out with, then found that people were more interested in longer classes (which I thought would come later).

So I'm cancelling the August workshop, and developing longer classes that people are asking for.
If you live in Toronto or surrounding areas, and are interested in classes in Ajax, email me at crystalcbrown@gmail.com (subject: "classes") and I'll add you to my sign-up list.

Then I can notify those who've signed up when classes are ready to start. Stay tuned!

Sunday On The Porch

Just wanted to thank everyone who stopped by Silverstone Gallery yesterday where I displayed some of my work. I was hoping for a sunny day, but got the complete opposite :( I haven't seen it rain that hard in a long time. But still some people did come by and I'm happy to do it again in September.

At least I wasn't struck by lightning, it was quite the light show yesterday...

As always, check Twitter @crystalbrownart for updates on upcoming events and works in progress.

New Website Coming Soon

This is only a temporary site as you can probably tell - it's very bare bones. I'm working on a more complete site, and since I don't pay others to do it for me, I will spend a few weeks (hopefully not longer) designing and putting it up.

In the meantime, you can follow me on Twitter @crystalbrownart for the latest news and some of my work in progress. There will be some exciting new things going on, and Twitter will be the first place to check for those. Thanks for visiting!
