Child Labour - Exploit your Child



Child Labour - Learn to Exploit your Children.

There is nothing wrong with a little hard work.

Here at the Patrick John Mills Gallery we believe you should get your children to work.

Encourage them to help work in your family bussiness.

It is important to have your children participate. They can learn a lot from getting involved. My daugther painted over 200 posters.

The Posters are

QUIT YOUR JOB.
Tell YOUR Boss to Kiss your ASS.
You want to be an Artist.
You want to live your life, be free, listen to your inner self, and follow your dreams.
Now ask yourself if you have to strength, courage, determination to believe in yourself.
After all... who needs money for food, housing, pension...
Next time you see an Artist... Give them a HUG.

On a personal note / something to add.:

There are a lot of places for music. Bands go play at pubs, bars, small venues. But there is not very many places for theatre, drama, dance, performance, poetry, and more emerging artists. So in an effort to expand and embrace all the arts in our community... I am very excited the that gallery will be starting the Theatre in the gallery next month... every month.

Each night will have a variety of arts, some dance, some theatre, some performance... so that the audience can taste a little ecelectic something special.

LIVE LOVE ART

First Evening of Let's Talk Art

This was the first of an ongoing series held on the second Thursday of each month entitled, Let's Talk Art. This evening, painter, Michele LeCourtois, and multi-media artist, Tick Tock Tom, gave powerpoint presentations to a full-house.

Michele introduces her art.
Michele spoke of her life-long attraction to art and of her background and education which lead her to become a painter of portraits and other canvases, the subject matter of which is meaningful and deeply personal.


Tick Tock Tom models a metal head-piece he constructed.


Tick Tock Tom spoke about coming to the realization that being a writer was not his bent but constructing sculpture, predominantly of found metal objects, was something he excels at and it is satisfying as a method of expression.

Patrick introduces the question/answer portion of the evening.
Table for Celebrate Her gala set for Saturday.
Tick Tock Tom thanks a Carleton University student for coming to the event.
