As summer unfolds across Eastern Ontario, I’m excited to share something truly special: I’ll be exhibiting with three remarkable artists—Adele Webster, Dan Hughes, and Michelle Reid—as part of this year’s Rideau Lakes Studio Tour.
This weekend during the Rideau Lakes Studio Tour at Together, we’ve formed a group we’re calling Studio A— you’ll find four artists brought together by a shared love of nature, light, movement, and story. Each of us approaches our work differently, yet we’re united by a deep connection to the landscapes that surround us. From brushstrokes to lens work, we’re all trying to capture something essential about what it means to live and create in this part of the world.
Studio A—Stop “A” on the tour map—is located next to Davis Lock (Google MAP), a historic gem along the Rideau Canal. It’s one of the most peaceful, inspiring spots I know. You can drive in, paddle in, or dock your boat—there’s plenty of space. We'll have our work on display, some live demonstrations, and a chance to simply sit, talk, and take in the view. Yes, there will be cold drinks too.
This is more than an art show—it’s a celebration of what happens when community, creativity, and place come together
