Look at these old bags! 👜😝
YesterdayKaren and I hit the “Retail Retrospective” at the Toronto Reference Library—vintage Canadian shopping bags, lots from the ’60s. The colour! The design! NOW I’m inspired to do something more with bags…. how about you? Check out our call to art!

(2 of 2)They're the same material as single-use bags, but double the weight, twice the headache. They still break down into the microplastics that we now carry in our bodies.
The recycling symbols are gradually being removed, turns out they are not recyclable. The threads clog the machines.

These "eco-friendly" bags are bad for our environment and our health. SquirrelKiosk partner Rob challenged me to make art using them
These bags are eco-theatre, fooling us into thinking that large stores are doing the right thing.

“It’s Not Easy Being Green”, bags, tape, glue, 2005.
A crunchy, leafy love letter to the absolute circus of waste in the food industry!
Turns out it's real hard to be "green" when corporations are only worried about breaking profit records.
Alright Karen... your move…BAG IT!!
Heyyy - it’s Rob!
It’s been a minute since I tossed an art challenge @karentaylorart.bsky.social ‘s way— so HERE WE GO!
I turned a couple of those ‘I swear I’ll reuse these’ grocery bags into LETTUCE.
Yup. Your move, Karen. No rules… just creativity… and BAGS!

I misquoted a movie on this painting and then tried to sell it for 2 years!
Just fixed it with a glow-up, and now “Fruiting”, 24x18”, acrylic on panel, is back!
A cheeky nod to “Mrs. Doubtfire” & “Sacco’s Produce”. DM me to snag it before it vanishes like her teeth in wine!

Another week, another glow-up!
I LOVE Steel Magnolias (“Drink your juice, Shelby” = ICONIC) but it was time to channel my inner Ron Burgundy.
“Everytime”, 24x24”, got a fresh suit, a new mustache & a Paul Rudd quote.
Great for a home, office, or glass case of emotion. DM me!
