I saw her in Ottawa last summer, but maybe I'll have a chance to see her again in Montreal when I'm there this year...I know Kelli Ann wants to see her...maybe we could all meet up? Tricot thé meets Emily?

"Indian Church" is my favourite, by the way. Up close, it seems to glow.

replying (in a round-about way): yes, yes, definitely yes. have never seen a Carr painting up close. a tricot thé in the café of the MBAM?
