Hey there, I've been extended at the Cameron House for a couple more days as Screamin' Sam gets the rest of his show ready. The last day to see the work is Sunday, Dec. 2nd. Send me an email if you'd like to meet up or you can purchase directly from the bar staff (cash only). I've been laid up with a cold for the better part of this week so things have been pretty quiet around here. I'll have some other news in a couple of days but for now head to the Cameron to check out "popular/mechanics" prices range from $140.00-$500.00.

Many, many thanks to all who came out on Saturday for the Reception, thanks to Cosmo, Colonel Tom and the American Pour and to Chef David Friedman and to my wife for driving me home, also thanks to Pla for taking this photo. This is the final week to see the show please be sure to head on down and check out the new additions that I'll be adding today. I just have to decide what paintings to add and I'll post photos either this eve or tomorrow am.

The Cameron House, Saturday (that's tomorrow)

I've been wanting both of these both for a number of years, maybe a decade, but the Beguiling always only had one copy and it was a hot seller. I got them both in softcover on Amazon for just over $30.00 which is incredible.
Tomorrow is my reception at the Cameron House for "popular/mechanics" the festivities start off at around 4pm, there will be some food supplied by Chef David Friedman and Red Fish Restaurant and at 6pm Colonel Tom and the American Pour will take the stage in the front room.
If you're looking for something to do before that Colonel Tom will be calling Bingo and spinning 78's (I think) at the Bluegrass Bingo at the Dakota Tavern. If you need something to do tonight or tomorrow Zeppelinesque play the back room of the Cameron House both nights. They are an incredible Led Zeppelin cover band, if you haven't seen them yet. Check them out, it just rocks.

I've been over in Any How Town (see links) working away on the final draft of the first book and getting a package ready to send out to agents. It's really taking shape now, I've kicked out alot of "deadwood" and I"m polishing up all the good stuff, it's a nice feeling.

A.Shay Hahn mighty painter (and slave to sales)

  If  you haven't joined the Deserre's Creative Club yet, you are seriously behind folks, you get points on the dollar and they occasionally send out TWENTY FIVE PERCENT OFF ONE DAY ONLYcoupons to your email. I could hardly wait to get back from walking the dog to head up there this morning.
I've been wanting to work on some larger pieces and also see how we do in the house working with oil paints. What you see above is approx. $240.00 in art supplies (that is a stack of SIX 30x40 canvases) and I saved $55.00 - should I repeat that? I don't think I will, so join the Creative Club, you can probably do it online sitting in robe.
"popular/mechanics" is receiving raves from both customers and bands alike, nothing like making people happy, I love to show at the Cameron House, it's my favourite venue to display my work. Where else can I meet folks, talk about art and see great bands? Where else, you tell me and I'll go there too.
The reception is Saturday, November 24th from 4-7pm with music by Colonel Tom and the American Pour and some of our food will be supplied by Red Fish Restaurant. Work has been selling steadily already and the show will change again this Thursday so please have a scroll around on the blog to see what is available.
You can email me to make an appointment or you can buy (cash only) directly from the bar staff.
The show is up until the end of the month, prices range from $140.00 - $500.00 so buy local and get those Christmas gifts locked up.
Tt's a beautiful day, talk soon

Fire on Queen Street

As you've probably heard by now there was a fire in the early morning in one of the apartments above Jakob's hardware, the Cameron's closest neighbour. We're happy to hear that the Cameron House is safe, why not go by today for a beer and let them know how glad you are that everyone is okay.
The Rucksack Willies are playing at six pm and David Baxter is on at ten pm.
Our thoughts are with the person injured in the fire, let's wish them a speedy recovery.

A.Shay Hahn Toronto's Most Loved Painter Of Things

The Fire Watcther
18x18inches,acyrlic on canvas,framed
UPDATE SOLD.
at the Cameron House, Reception 4-7pm, Sat. November 24th.
I've had this piece for awhile, what's so interesting to me about it is if I had to point at a painting of mine that indicates where my work is headed next this is the one. The painting is over two years old, singular, not part of a series of any kind but I know with my instincts that this is the next direction my work will be taking over the upcoming year.

if you want to buy work from the Cameron and I'm not around it's fine to pay the staff, ATM on site.
