Valeca Studios: The Sixteen (photography)
Artist Statement:
My name Yenny Foulston (pronounced Jenny), I am the founder and the photographer of Valeca Studios. My photography concentrates on natural landscapes and human architecture. I have a landscape photography series called “The Sixteen,” where I feature different landmarks of Alberta and different cities around the world.
As a photographer I am drawn to the beauty of simple images, and I am always inspired by beautiful light. Photograph gives me the option to document what I see and what I feel. This is how I personally tell stories, preserve memories, and capture a moment.
Come escape the cold and immerse yourself in these beautiful tropical images and other travelscapes. On exhibition now, until the end of the month!

Greg Doherty: Retrospective (paintings)
Artist statement:
Approaching an age milestone, the idea came to me to put some of my paintings of the past couple decades on exhibit. The painting selected oscillate from representational to abstraction, never staying too long on each swing of the artistic pendulum. This exhibition contains some of my darlings; the works that I feel are pivotal from my artistic journey. Making art, being involved in, or thinking about art for me has been a lifelong, deeply personal activity. My favourite quote of Gustav Klimt is: “If you want to know who I am, look at my paintings”. This art is a retrospective of my life.
On exhibition now, until the end of the month!
