Hello Everyone,

I am pleased to advise you that The Burdette Gallery has agreed to show some of my work for the next 3 months - from August through October. Specifically, Burdette will be showing some recent images shot in Israel and Jordan, as well as the complete collection of canvas images.

The Burdette Gallery is located in Orton, which is just west of Orangeville about a 1 hour drive from Tornonto. The property is itself a "work of art" - nestled amongst 65 acres of meadow and pines with trails, ponds and picnic tables, where families can enjoy the country ambience and get to know the local critters and birds. Burdette's address is 111212 11th line, R.R.#2, Orton, ON. Telephone 519 928 5547. Visit their web site at www.burdettegallery.com

Burdette represents over 100 artists who are well known locally, nationally and internationally. Their works are very diverse and you will see paintings, three dimensional sculptures, stained glass, decorative pieces and photography.

A visit to Burdette combines an artistic experience as well as a splendid day in the country visiting a showpiece of natural beauty.

Hope you can come and see my work and other excellent art.

Marty

Hi Everyone,

The Gallery ready images from Israel and Jordan can be seen at the Israel/Jordan Gallery under Galleries on the web site.

The pictures are in the Gallery at Cedar Creek. Three are mounted on canvas and appear to be paintings. The canvas experiment has now become a genre and occupies a special section in the Gallery. Reaction from the public at large, customers and my fellow artists has been outstanding. The Painters are particularly enamored of the concept. There is now a total of 6 canvas images

I am planning an Open House on a weekend in July and will advise. Also, the Caledon Hills Studio Adventure, the Tour of the Caledon East Artists is scheduled for the weekend of October 3, 4 and I will be sending out invitations to my contact list re. times, etc.

Please feel free to contact me anytime at:

Cheers,

Israel and Jordan 2008

Please check out the new gallery Israel and Jordan in the galleries section. Marsha and I visited Israel and Jordan in October of 2008. What an experience - a beautiful part of the world; amazing accomplishments by the Israelis; an extraordinary rich history and of course riveting current events from an economic, political point of view.

The images in the gallery are the ones that I will enlarge and frame for Cedar Creek Gallery in the Spring. I will continue to mount many of them on canvas to enhance this part of my portfolio. Canvas works very well for the moody shots.

Please contact me if you wish more information if you want to make inquiries or place an order.

It's that time of year again! The Caledon Artists Tour re-branded as the Caledon Hills Studio Adventure to highlight the wonderful opportunity to enjoy a day in the country in the beautiful Caledon Hills, the Fall colours, local restaurants and the Artists'Picks - sights recommended by the Artists to enhance your visit.

The Event is Saturday and Sunday September 27/28 from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm each day. There are 7 Studios and guests featuring oil painting, wood carving, textiles, photography, glass, jewellery, leather and pottery. For all the information about Artists and their work as well as locations, maps, etc. please go to our web site www.caledonhillsstudioadventure.com

At Cedar Creek I have new works from Southwest Florida and Chesapeake Bay. Some surprises include images with People and Infrastructure just to demonstrate that my creative juices are flowing. In addition, I am experimenting with mounting moody images on canvas, which has the effect of looking like oil paintings - very cool!!

I hope you will come and visit. The atmosphere is informal, the discourse is usually stimulating and the images are professionally presented - lovingly shot and framed!

You can get picnic fixings at Howard's on Airport Road next to LCBO and coffee, chocalate and munchies at Marvelous Munchies next door and for the best meal the Village Bistro at Highways 10 and 24 in The Village of Caledon.

Marsha and I and all my assistants shanghied for the occasion will be excited to seek you.

Call or e-mail for any info or advice.

Cheers,
Marty

Hello Everyone-

Time for a winter update on what is doing at Cedar Creek Gallery.

First of all, the Xmas Season in Caledon was the perfect winter holiday; lots of crispy snow, outdoor fun and of course holiday cheer. The images along side were shot on a snowy, misty, kind of a moody day and demonstrate how beautiful winter can be in the Caledon Hills. Two of the pictures "Stragglers" (the bulrushes) and "Imprints in the Mist" (trees in misty background) are both available in the Gallery.

In recent weeks, I have been working diligently to get additional galleries to represent my work or give me an exhibition. I am trying to broaden my reach, while giving current clients and visitors and prospective visitors more convenient access to enjoy the images.

I have had a very positive response from established galleries in the Caledon and Halton Hills areas. It seems that my profile and reputation is growing.

First, the exhibition at the Williams Mill in Glen Williams is now finalized for June 9 - July 6, 2008. Glen Williams is a charming village just north of Georgetown in the Halton Hills. Check it out at www.williamsmill.com

The gallery will show an extensive selection of photographs from around the world - 40 or more framed images will be on display, as well as unframed copies. A reminder of dates, location and maps will be sent out before the show to everyone on my mailing list.

Second, the Dragon Fly Arts gallery in Orangeville (189 Broadway) has agreed to a 2 week show April 15 - 29, 2008. This show will feature a theme - "Sunsets, Sea and Sky". Again, a reminder will go out on the Mailing List as the date draws near. Check out Dragon Fly, it is a very cool gallery with working artists and folk art at www.dragonflyarts.ca

Third, the Burdette Gallery is currently exhibiting a selection of images from Caledon and Muskoka. The gallery is located near Orton half way between Fergus and Orangeville. Directions and info about the gallery itself (a treat to visit) at www.burdettegallery.com

A reminder once again if you peruse the web site "Galleries" and decide you would like to make a purchase or discuss please call me at 647 241 2591 or e-mail at martinrothstein@rogers.com

Until next time --- enjoy the "real" winter!
Marty
