THE best weekend. Friday dinner at The Irish Harp Pub: starters -perogies; entrees - St. Pat's Irish stew and their new Kilkenny Ale Pie with lamb, root veggies in kilkenny ale gravy surrounded by puff pastry; dessert - chef's creme brulee...Saturday, enjoyed the sights, smells, sounds of the annual Niagara-on-the-Lake Ice Wine Festival. All the while being pampered with gourmet breakfasts, cozy afternoon treats and a sumptious bedroom at the Gatekeeper's Retreat thanks, David! To our new friends Kelly Anne and Mike, we loved our breakfast time and conversation - see you again at the Peach Festival!

Happy National Tulip Day to my family and friends of the Dutch persuasion and to folks like me who purely enjoy buying/photographing and especially receiving them 😁. Extremely thankful to a special friend, Anne Gelatly, for this gorgeous pink vase.

Order Art with Confidence:
Have you ever ordered something online only to find it isn’t quite what you expected? The same thing often happens when ordering art - it can be hard to know for sure what will look good and even harder to know what size will fit your space. If you’re wanting a new piece to liven up your home or office but haven’t bitten the bullet for this reason, I have just the solution!

With the Augmented Reality (AR) Live Preview feature on my website, you’ll be able to scale any piece of art to your space and be confident with the size you’d like to order and better visualize what it will look like on Your wall.

The ‘free work’ problem has gotten worse in recent years as the freelance and small business market has become more competitive

A huge shout out to my marketing interns Brandon Langton and Gabriela Balqis, fourth year Communications students at York University. Together we made a mighty marketing team. I will miss our half hour Monday meetings, your energy, enthusiasm, can-do attitude you brought to each assignment. Your efforts were invaluable in strengthening my social media, websites and Mailchimp campaigns for Pretty in Pictures and Julie Williams Fine Art Photography. I wish you both success and happiness in your future endeavors.

Hot off the press here’s a sneak peak of my first magazine. Gabriela, thanks for your patience working through the spreads and content. Email [email protected] for your complimentary digital copy of this 20-page plus keeper.
