I’ve got great news! I’ve been accepted into The Toronto Artist Project, which is a big deal, by the way. Why is it a big deal? Over 300 artists applied for the 75 spots available this year, and in years past, though I’ve applied, I’ve been among the artists thinking, “Well, I can try again next year.” But this year, my paintings (and drawings — yes, in response to a special request, my drawings along with my paintings) will be “rubbing shoulders” with some of the best contemporary art being created today. The Artist Project Toronto showcases original art from over 200 carefully juried independent and contemporary artists.

The Artist Project is a rendezvous for artists (like me) and art collectors and enthusiasts (like you). I’ll be in Toronto (at the Queen Elizabeth Building at Exhibition Place) on the first weekend in March from the 1st to the 4th. It starts with a special VIP reception on Thursday evening and is open to the public on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They anticipate over 12,000 visitors! Buy tickets here, or if you want to come to the show as my guest, contact me. I have a limited number of tickets I’ll distribute to guests on a first come, first served basis.

I’ll be making more announcements as the show approaches. I’ll be previewing some new images I’ve been preparing for the show (some of my best work ever!) in the coming weeks (although I have one beautiful painting I’ll only be unveiling at the show in Toronto!) and some of my drawings right here. Or if you’d prefer just to be notified when I display new work, subscribe at www.duanegordon.com (at the bottom of the page) and you’ll be the first to know every time.

I’d love to see you all there! If you or your friends and family are going to Toronto at the beginning of March, this is a show you won’t want to miss.

To your success,

Duane
