Name: Kate Ramos
Location: Angus, Ontario, Canada

I have lived in Ontario most of my life. I am a nature lover, who canoes into the Canadian wilderness annually. I have spent hundreds of hours canoeing and camping into remote areas. I use a camera to capture images and impressions for my paintings. I am a self-taught artist, with formal training in graphic arts. My hope is to give people the love I feel for nature, when viewing my images. I like to say a little piece of myself goes into each of my paintings.

New Year, New Endeavors

This year is starting to look like a really great year. I have entered the show at Mariposa again, and it sounds like it is going to be an awesome one. Don McLean is to headline Saturday night! I can't wait. I lot of my friends are planning to be there as well. This year should be the best one yet. I've decided to skip the Hamilton shows this year. Sorry to anyone who was hoping to catch me there this year. I will return in the next few years though. I'm just sticking to local shows and maybe hit a few more galleries as well.
I've finally gotten serious about selling on E-Bay. So far it has been paying off. If all goes well, I might not have to do so many shows through the summer. Gary (my husband) will be happy with that, he's been asking for a break for a while now. I need him there to help with setting up and packing down. Not to mention he is a great salesperson. :)-
All in all things are looking up and I'm excited for things to start rolling.
We have had steady business in the frame shop since we started advertising in the local newspaper. Hopefully that will build as well.
I will post more news about shows and such as I get them.
I'm off visiting family today. We've been doing that a lot more lately since we became empty nesters. Which I was surprised to find that I liked all the peace in the house now. With two boys to raise it could get quite active around here. At least the sun is shining, I will probably try to take some photos on the way.
