A New Partnership with Abstract Art Canada.

Art Sales, Events & Announcements

As of November 2021 I am excited to be showing my Fun Money series of abstract paintings alongside the artists of Abstract Art Canada. Fun Money: Can I Lick It? (Guilty Pleasures), Debbie.lee Miszaniec This autumn I was invited by artist Jim Ulrich to show my abstract art through a new art e-commerce venue, Abstract Art Canada. I was impressed by the small and targeted selection of artists represented through Abstract Art Canada, the focus on learning more about the artist, as opposed to being just another sales portal, and the truly supportive interaction with the Abstract Art Canada team! Check it out, make a purchase, support Canadian Art and let yourself be transported out of your everyday, without even leaving home!
