  • seeing art in autumn leaves

    October 13, 2016

    I’ve 2 different one-woman art exhibits already scheduled for 2017 – and already there’s discussion of another exhibit for 2018. So I’ve been taking walks to gather inspiration.  Which means lots of sketchbook work, doodling and experimenting with pattern designs. Here’s a sketch I did along the River-walk in Vancouver… Also in my sketchbook I…

  • more short nonsense

    Practicing “narrative” additions to my “visual story” thing – and this time I illustrated a short short-poem-story-like-substance.  Please wash your hands after handling (ahem, wink) this one titled: Haste Accounting by Sue Clancy An accountant was working in Haste who added his numbers with paste saying “If these sums are wrong then I’ll sing you a song but…

  • the art of short nonsense

    October 11, 2016

    I’ve decided I’m going to practice adding more “narrative” information on occasion to the “visual story” thing I do. Particularly when I’m doing my artist books. So, lucky you, you’ll get to watch me practice in public! Here’s a short, short bit of flash-fiction-y nonsense to start with: Scary Spider Story by Sue Clancy

  • Irish art and pub food

    October 8, 2016

    Long ago now I was in an art exhibit in Wexford Ireland (my last name is Clancy, in case you’re wondering about the Irish connection). Communications regarding shipping my artwork to the Wexford Ireland Arts Centre http://www.wexfordartscentre.ie/ – happened via email and chat. Anyway, at one point the director said that he was going to go get a…

  • Sue’s art speech text

    October 5, 2016

    On Oct 1st I gave a short talk during my fine art opening at the Daily In The Pearl arranged by Caplan Art Designs.  Since I’d recently written a blog post titled “on writing and giving speeches” I thought it only fair to share with you the text of my speech along with photos. This…

  • on writing and giving speeches about art

    September 29, 2016

    During my art exhibit opening Oct 1st I’m giving a 5 minute talk about my artwork. If you had told me when I was 9 years old that one day I would, fairly regularly, give short public speeches about my artwork during gallery openings I would not have believed you. At the time I was…

    September 26, 2016

    In my last blog post, titled ‘down to the wire‘, I listed 10 tips for prepping art for gallery display  – and someone asked me to post some photos of the finished backs of my artwork. So here are those requested photos: To make my labels I type up a Word file with all of…

    September 23, 2016

    Soon I’m taking more new artwork to the Caplan Art Designs gallery. I’ve put the hanging wire on the backs of the latest 3 new works and as I worked I thought of various things I’ve learned, over the past umpteen years as a professional artist, about prepping artwork for display and delivery. Here are 10 tips…
