I’m having a late summer studio sale! There’s one small painting and three works on paper still available. Head over to www.sholem.ca/shop — and my zines are also all for sale there too! Something for every budget!

As of the latest issue of Weltkunst, I am now one of the “stars of new queer painting.” A little bit of a lol, but v chuffed to be included in such good company.
