Inspiration comes from light and shadow. Glimpses of water, wildlife and woods are interpreted through gouache watercolour, photography, and printmaking.
WATER – Andrea End’s waterscapes, painted in gouache, an opaque water colour, feature echoes of the landscape in reflections.
NATURE – Manfred End shares his passion for the natural world through the lens of his camera. His images of wildlife and the outdoors bring these cherished spaces to you.
WOODS - Andrea End’s series of linocut reduction block prints bring you sunlit scenes of our vanishing forests. In this printmaking technique a multicolored print is made with the use of a single block.
Being connected to the natural world has positive effects on our mental and physical health. Whether ancient wisdom or modern science, we know that being in the forest, being near, in or on the water is beneficial to our well-being.
Andrea and Manfred invite you to take some time from your busy lives to pause, disconnect and surround yourself with images to lift your spirits.
Andrea End is a practicing Visual Artist. She has participated in numerous juried shows, group shows and solo shows, primarily in the Greater Toronto Area. Her work is featured in the permanent collection of the Richmond Hill Central Public Library and the Town of Richmond Hill. Public art work includes murals in Markham, Richmond Hill and Schomberg.
Andrea sits on the Board/Executive Council of the Richmond Hill Group of Artists and serves on the Cultural Leadership Council, an advisory committee for Richmond Hill’s Cultural Plan.
Manfred End is a successful small business owner. He is a lifelong photographer, inspired by the magnificence of our province. He is an outdoors enthusiast who believes that Ontario’s beauty should be celebrated while protecting our natural surroundings. Manfred is a long-time resident of Aurora.

If you had to leave your house in ten minutes and never come back, what would you grab?
Most would likely answer important documents or the bare necessities. A purse, perhaps. If you’ve children in tow, it’s likely the bulk of what you pack would be for their benefit.
This is a crisis faced by many battered women who seek to escape to shelters. Rarely do they have time to pack properly, and often they find themselves at a shelter holding only what they can carry. When it comes time to leave the shelter and start life fresh, they often lack even the most basic of comforts.
Why Basketeers was created:
To most people, an empty laundry hamper is just that. But to “Basketeers', a laundry hamper represents Hope…hope for a woman leaving a shelter with few possessions, hope for women wanting a fresh start, a new life, motivation and support.
“Basketeers” feels by supporting women in the four shelters that we assist in York Region, we will help them find the strength to create new lives for themselves and their children, not return to their abuser, and by breaking the pattern, feel stronger for their children.
By creating a “New Beginnings” basket either individually, as a family, a group of friends, or with business colleagues, it lets these women know someone out there cares enough about them to take the time and effort to create a themed basket especially for them.
More than 10,000 women have received a “New Beginnings” basket since 2000, and we continue to grow. York Region donated 252 baskets in 2017.
Be part of this special day, bring your basket(s), stay for a while, enjoy some refreshments, visit with other Basketeers and meet representatives from our Region's four shelters. So mark your calendars and start spreading the word. The event will take place at Presbyterian Church,600 Village Parkway, Unionville, Ontario
It is very important to register your Baskets now at www.basketeers.org.

Loblaw Companies Ltd. launched a "curated marketplace" online Thursday that will include brands and products the company hasn't stocked before in a move aimed at setting the retailer up to compete with Amazon for Canadian market share.
Canada's largest grocery chain said the marketplace includes more products, as well as a broader range of vendors than what was available before.
The online marketplace is an expansion of the existing PC Express platform, which allows customers to buy groceries online and pick them up in store or opt for home delivery.

Being commissioner of the Canadian Football League has always required a certain degree of optimism, which has never been a problem for Randy Ambrosie.
When he steps onto the stage for his annual state-of-the-league address Friday morning in advance of Sunday’s 107th Grey Cup game in Calgary, he will boldly present his vision of a league excited about its future – excited about the prospect of expansion to Atlantic Canada, of forthcoming new ownership in Montreal, of a new long-term agreement with its television partner and the integration of players from around the globe.
