We enjoyed the Elora-Fergus Studio Tour last Sunday and today and really were impressed by the artists we visited. I could have purchased something from each of them, from Grayce Perry's Communion 4 collage/painting which featured a woman in a red cape with a black dog looking over a cliff into the blue, to Denise Rainville's beautiful plates and cups, to Tony Feluca's incredible, intricate insect jewelry to Stephen Kitras glass pumpkins to Vicky Beverstein and Edna Mewhiney's stained glass art.
In the end we had to be realistic, focus on the furnace and air conditioning unit we're buying (gulp) and only brought home a gorgeous floor vase by Edna Mewhiney. It's now on display at the top of our grand staircase for all to see. In the sunlight it's quite magnificent!
Tomorrow is the last day so if you have some time and are in the area, come meet some of the amazing artists and also enjoy the Horse and Hound Parade! And if you're too tired at the end of the day, you can stay over at our B&B.
