TORONTO OUTDOOR ART SHOW INVITATION
This print was created as an original art linocut invitation promoting my art show at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, Nathan Phillips Square 1999. The backside of this print (not visible in the framed print) promotes the Outdoor Art Show and my art booth. I made original linocut prints promoting my artwork for three or four years--this was one of my favourite small prints created for this purpose.
