Scugog Arts presents: ‘Living my Best Life Connected to the Land’ by Joanna Malcolm. This show brings Joanna Malcolm’s eclectic style into conversation with new methods of creating abstract impressions and whimsy. Colour is her muse. In this exploration of emotion through colour, Malcolm highlights her love for nature and the interconnection between healing, nature, and the arts. Joanna Malcolm strives to discover new facets of her style as it shifts and flows with the waves of inspiration that come her way.  

This exhibition will open on Saturday, Sept 6 from 1-3 PM at the Scugog Arts Space located at 268 Queen Street, Port Perry, and will run until October 5. Meet the artist, enjoy light refreshments and experience Joanna Malcolm’s work in a bright space full of creative energy!
