Won’t be drawing on paper tonight.
Follow my instagram (rebeccaladds) for frequent updates and snapshots! I am about to be working on loads of things for something exciting coming up for Toronto!
(also, soon, prints and goodies will be available, I promise!)
Stay tuned lovelies.
Show was a success! Now we can all relax a little.
In less than two weeks now I will be on my way home to Canada. I can’t wait.

Saint Sebastian: Portrait of Irene
I’m installing my work for the show today! The studio looks completely different when it’s cleaned out. It’s really great. I really hope some of you come out Thursday night!

Finished this semester’s work. The studio is being emptied out for critiques and the final exhbition so I will just be working on smaller things until I’m back in Canada. YAY.
Finally got around to making a professional website, take a look!
Official invite to each and every one of you!
APRIL 4TH RIGHT BY THE MAIN TRAIN STATION IN FLORENCE:
neo·phil·ia: love of or enthusiasm for what is new or novel
Based in Toronto, Canada the OCAD University’s off-campus program in Florence, Italy is proud to present Neophilia: The 39th Annual group exhibition featuring the interdisciplinary works from 27 of Toronto’s top emerging artists. Each artist has spent the past eight months studying in Florence while working diligently in studios that date back to the Renaissance, producing a unique and exciting body of work
The whole 6.5 months I have been here has been leading up to this one show. This will be a one-night-only party and an awesome display of Canadian art! I will be displaying not 1 but 4 of the biggest drawings I have done to date. I would love any of you in the area to come, send me a message!
