Painterly Pauses: Lorena Ziraldo
Lorena Ziraldo’s paintings are both vivid and subtle, offering quiet yet engaging scenes and vignettes rendered both roughly and realistically. I offer some thoughts on her work, in my latest artist feature.

A taste of silence: new works by Joel Smith
Joel Smith’s images of the Carolinian Forest are both evocative on their own, but also in how they related to the works of other artists exploring the emotive and ephemeral symbolism of landscape.
Welland: Times Present Times Past
Sandy Fairbairn has been taking photographs of Niagara for over forty years, focusing on the people and places around him. His images of Niagara stretch back to the 1970s, and some of the scenes presented in Welland: Time Present Time Past will be shown in the Rose City for the very first time. I curated this exhibition, and offer some ideas that informed it, and that grew out of it.
Instant Niagara: an intimate landscape held in your hand
Kate Gottli (@instant_niagara) is an artist who captures scenes and sites of Niagara in an accessible, but also considered manner. I offer a response to some of her work in this latest artist feature.
