Terrill Welch Five Seasons MA Fine Art Final Show - Terrill Welch by herself issue #49

With a drum roll and as much fanfare as a Canadian can manage ,on behalf of our group show — FIVE SEASONS MA Fine Art Final Show is now open!

Please note, I will be changing the accessibility to the Terrill Welch Gallery Pod to “by appointment” following the long weekend in September until at least the beginning of the long weekend in May 2027. I will say more about this in the coming weeks but if you do wish to drop by at your leisure to walk in and self-browse the physical gallery without an appointment, this will only be available for a few more weeks and then an appointment will be necessary for the next several months over the fall, winter and early spring. 

This is my primary and only focus this week. Please enjoy taking your time to enjoy the full richness and depth of this event. I am happy to answer any questions about both the solo exhibition and the overall group final show. 

UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY

The summer is moving quickly towards early fall with a change in the air and harvesting of our small garden of raised beds. I am still publishing weekly in my art research journal if you are seeking more of that “artist in the studio” experience at Creative Potager:

I invite you to celebrate with me all those many months of long hours and hard work! I am thrilled to be able to present my solo exhibition within this final group show for my MA Fine Art degree which brings this programme to a complete close. Thank you for your ongoing engagement with this work over the past two years. Your support and encouragement has been most appreciated! 

Warm regards as always
