OCAD Whodunit? Art Show and Sale














I will be participating in this year's Whodunit? show and sale at OCAD. Go try to find me at one of the public previews! A funny aside...my non-artist boyfriend also has a piece in the show! Hilarious!

Check out the Whodunit? website at:

From the press release:

So you think you know your artists? Test your powers to recognize work by famous and not-so-famous artists at Toronto's most mysterious art sale!

The sale offers hundreds of original works donated by Canadian artists, creative celebrities, OCAD faculty, alumni and students. Every piece measures 5-1/2" x 7-1/2" and each piece is $75. The mystery - who created the art - is solved only after the piece is bought and turned over. Find out why Globe and Mail art critic Sarah Milroy calls it "one of the city's most ingenious visual-art fundraisers".

Work is sold on a first-come-first-served basis. Hint: the best way buyers can ensure they get the work they want is to come to the preview, make a wish list, and arrive early at the sale!
