Riverdale Art Walk NEXT WEEKEND!

NEXT weekend I will be exhibiting my artwork at the Riverdale Art Walk for the first time ever! So excited! I've heard so many amazing things about this show so I'm really looking forward to it. Last year my application was accepted but because it fell on the same weekend as the Sunnyside Art Show (not on this year) I wasn't able to make it. This year I am ready to show off my skills and hopefully gain more business with a beautiful custom artwork section featuring comparison photos and beautiful testimonials. Bring your friends and family and meet me at spot 90! Hope to see you there! :D

Malinda Prud'homme @ ART BATTLE 142

On May 27th 2014 I had the pleasure of competing in ART BATTLE 142 at The Great Hall in Toronto! This was my second time competing and I was determined to have fun, paint loose, and just relax and enjoy the whole experience. In total 24 artists competed and I must admit the competition was fierce! I wasn't one of the artists to make it on to the final round but I sure had fun! What an amazing night!

BIG ART BOOK 2014 And Juror's Choice Award!

I am so thrilled and incredibly honoured to have my artwork chosen to be featured in Scarborough Arts' BIG ART BOOK 2014! The call for artists went out to all those working in Ontario; visual artists, photographers, and writers; and apparently the response was immense. This makes getting accepted even more of an accomplishment, one I really wasn't expecting. Just when I thought this opportunity couldn't get any better I was informed that my piece "Seeing Into The Soul" was awarded "Juror's Choice"! I am absolutely ecstatic! Thank you so much for seeing the beauty and skill in my work Scarborough Arts! I cannot wait to get my copy of the book!

Playing The Tourist At Ripley's Aquarium!

My fiance Darren and I decided to play the tourist last weekend by visiting Canada's new Ripley's Aquarium! 

We had lots of fun and would definitely suggest giving it a visit!

We both found the "Canadian Waters" really interesting! 

I never knew these freaky looking guys were in our lakes!

HUGE lobster! 

But the most exciting experience was the "Rainbow Reef" where you stand on a moving 

walkway and are brought through a clear tunnel making you feel like you are under the water.  

You're absolutely surrounded by fish and feel as though you could reach out and touch them. 

And the COLOURS were just incredible!

And lastly, my favourite, the beautiful jellyfish!
