Helene Blanchette has had her work, Down the Shore, accepted into a show at the Argyle Fine Arts gallery in Halifax.  The show, "Get Outta Town" is a group show about travelling.  Argyle asked artists to show their favourite places to escape to, both near and far.  The show runs until April 28 and details of opening hours and directions can be found at www.argylefineart.blogspot.com

For those of you who can't make it to Halifax this month, the show will be available online through the above website.

Artist Statement:

This is a picture of the drive down the Cabot Trail looking North towards Chéticamp. It doesn't really look like this, but if you take your time and go off the main road, you may come across any of these scenes.

Regina Marzlin's work, Xylem and Phloem, was accepted into the SAQA international show, Microscapes.  The show will be opening this fall at the prestigious Houston Quilt Festival before touring internationally for 3 years.  

 Regina's artist statement about Xylem and Phloem

Those two plant cell types have the function of transporting water, sugar and minerals through the plant. Cellular structures look fascinating under a microscope, they reveal a hidden world and let us marvel at the powers of evolution.
