Member ELISE DOANE is Busy

Artist for the month of July at the Tantallon Library at exit 5 off Route 103.

Elise Says:

As a solo show I am making it a retrospective of my work over the years. I have tried to show samples of most of the media I have explored starting with oils, watercolour, mixed watercolour with collage, acrylic, acrylic collage , mixed media and abstract. Many of the paintings are ones that have been borrowed back for the show and have never been shown before and will never again be shown!

The hours for the Library are closed Sunday and Monday. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 10am. to 9 pm. and then Friday and Saturday 10am. to 5 pm.

AND (there's more....)

I am also showing in a group show in conjunction with the Peggy’s Cove Studio Tour this weekend

at St. Luke’s Church Hall on old route 3 opposite the old train station

(see MAYOR'S AWARD below!!)

The Contemporary Art Society's 43rd Annual Juried Show, 2016 Mayor's Award winner, Elise Doane, had a chance on June 22nd to visit Mayor Savage at City Hall and present him with a print of her Award winning painting "Sailing Into The Far Blue Yonder". Mayor Savage was very impressed with her work and is looking forward to finding the perfect spot to hang it up in his office.

Congratulations Elise!
