Can you spot the difference? Over the winter Laurie took 'Where Angels Play' back to her studio to 'reframe' the piece. You may notice a different border on it now!

Today is the kind of day that reminds us of afternoon drives with your windows down, view filled with big cloudy skies, passing by clothes hanging out on the line, and feeling relaxed, just like Mike Smith's 'Farm #1619', 36"x36", Oil on canvas, 42"x42" Framed. $2,500.00

One of the many beautiful features of the East Coast is the beautiful colourful tundra, filled with moss and shrubs, with giant rock faces sprinkled between. This so often frames rural life, with churches that have been turned into houses, farms and fishing villages, the ocean not far. You get all of that with Olga Oresanya's 'The Hill that Holds the House', acrylic on canvas, 11"x14", $300.00

It's Summer here today but 'It's Fall in Blue Rocks' from Bruce Henderson! 30"x30", oil on canvas, $1,300.00

Happy World Oceans Day! At Laurie Swim Gallery we have a passion for our ocean, and the impacts it is experiencing! Last Summer Laurie was a part of her group exhibition ‘The Blue Ribbon, the Current that Connects Us, The Gulf Stream’ which focused on the environmental impacts the Gulf Stream has been experiencing. This Summer, you’ll be able to find her Blue Ribbon pieces in a show in Lockeport, NS! Stay tuned for more details!
