Show Begins in

Square Foot Show began as a small, annual art party at Julia Veenstra’s studio in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada—each piece just 12×12 and at a single price. Since 2020, it has exploded into an online “Black Friday of art,” with collectors and artists spanning the globe and many artists selling out in just minutes. We love nothing more than connecting thousands of collectors from across the world with incredible artwork from artists they might never otherwise encounter, all through our fun and fast-paced virtual shows.

The fun continues with December’s Neurodivergent show,  featuring a roster of more than 30 incredible artists selected by our jury of Artists and Collectors. For this special event, 10% of our proceeds will benefit Art of Autism who empower and connect individuals within the autism community through participation in the Arts!  Held on the 2nd Thursday of each month for 24 hours, these shows bring bold, curated collections to life in an exciting and fast-paced format. We recognize that current events make multi-national events like this complicated. To help bring clarity, we’ve increased transparency around the origin of artwork and have written a brief letter on cross-border challenges.

🇨🇦 Sheri Peters (@sheri_peters_abstract_painter) says: "I am an abstract painter inspired by the beauty of nature. My paintings embark on a journey into the heart of nature as we observe the world in relationship to ourselves, as there is a thread that ties us to the invisible world, something spiritual, invisible. The music, poetry, and random thoughts begin to translate into color on the canvas. At some point, I stop and begin to see, like looking into the clouds, something to paint. Through this process, I find a beginning, and images come into my conscious mind. Influences behind my work include the nature that surrounds me, and artists Gustav Klimt and Salvador Dali. 

I teach workshops, inspiring others to create artwork from a space of childlike wonder, as I believe the simple act of creativity unleashes a part of ourselves that the world needs as it seeks connection. Art is a way to bridge the gap into our emotional selves, connecting us together in this united struggle of what it is to be human.

My creative studio is in Gibsons, BC, and when I’m not there, you can find me walking the beach and nature trails, watching the birds, bears, coyotes, and other critters with my dog. These quiet times of reflection help feed my creativity, spirit, and soul as I connect with the solitude of life.

Featured guest on the national TV show, An Artist in The House in 2022, a winner of the Sunshine Coast Writers Society people’s choice award in 2024, and artwork featured in the book “Not an Island” 2024 /25. On the cover of Snippets in a small town, a book due to be released in December 2025."
