Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition


Isabella will be at TOAE this weekend, purple section, booth 209. Be sure to visit her and bring lots of money. A deposed emir living in Nigeria has already expressed an interest in the picture at left (as well he might); unfortunately he does not have ready access to his considerable fortune, and Isabella politely declined the complicated financial arrangements he proposed. Nevertheless it's quite possible he and his retinue might fly in to Toronto for a short visit, so if you want to buy this piece (or indeed any of the pieces in the show; it's rumoured he has made offers to every artist exhibiting) then you'd better get down to Nathan Phillips Square bright and early. That's Isabella Stefanescu, booth 209, purple section (her booth is hard to miss. Her sister refers to it as "the castle". It is designed to withstand hurricanes. I believe it could survive a collision with a fully loaded 707.)
