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 August’s show “Sun & Sky” featuring a roster of 25 incredible artists selected by our jury of artists and collectors. 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 letter outlining the impact of tariffs on artists and collectors. Read the letter on Tariffs.

🇨🇦 Michele Rogers (@michelerogersart), an artist from Saskatchewan, is celebrated for her diversity in subjects, including portraits honoring Indigenous First Nations women and reflecting her Métis heritage. Her work captures the stories and resilience of grandmothers and female warriors.  Michele enjoys painting the everyday moments in life, reminding us to slow down and enjoy life’s little pleasures.

Her painting "Leotie" won first prize in a juried art competition, with two other portraits receiving honorable mentions. Leotie was also chosen to grace the cover of the Women in Arts Network online catalogue.

Michele has had her ‘Fierce’ collection on display in a local gallery, and ‘A Grandmother’s Love’ collection is currently on display at the Gov’t House Queen Elizabeth II Art Gallery in Regina, SK, until June 21.

She was featured in a prestigious artist magazine in fall 2025 and is part of a three-part artist documentary titled The Art of Becoming. Additionally, she spoke at the WESK event for women entrepreneurs in fall 2025 and will be the keynote speaker at an event for International Women’s Day in March 2026.

Michele also teaches paint parties, inspiring others to explore their creativity and gain confidence.
Self-taught, 🇨🇦 Sandy Redman (@san.redman) finds inspiration for her art from her passion for outdoor adventures and her deep connection to the natural world. Her acrylic paintings aim to draw out the simple beauty of nature's many forms and colours. Ripples in water, the flow of trees, colours changing on a mountain, the life of a prairie sky, and our majestic Canadian wildlife are painted using simple representational shapes, flowing lines, and a calming muted colour palette.

Sandy was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, spending much of her childhood exploring the lakes, rivers and forests of the Canadian Shield. She moved to beautiful British Columbia in 2008, where she currently lives, plays and creates. Her paintings are being enjoyed in private homes across Canada and internationally.

🇨🇦 Barbara Reade (@bdreade_art) completed her BFA in Illustration at Parsons School of Design in New York City. After many rewarding years in education and as a retail business owner, her artistic career has come full circle. Barbara now paints from her light-filled studio in downtown Burlington, where she creates alongside her two studio cats, Forrest and Jenny. Her paintings can be found in private collections throughout Canada, the USA, and the Bahamas.

Barbara says, "As an abstract artist, my work is an exploration of energy and the intangible connections that shape our human experience. Inspired by nature, music, and the rhythms of daily life, I work with acrylic and mixed media to create paintings that evoke movement and emotion. I begin every painting with play, allowing it to develop organically, embracing unpredictability and imperfection as essential parts of the creative process. For the Sun & Sky Show, I have returned to my painting roots, creating dreamlike, abstracted landscapes inspired by the impressions left behind by favourite places rather than trying to replicate reality."

As a self-taught artist, 🇨🇦 Carmen Porter's (@carmenporterart) paintings are an expression of her perception of nature, with luminous brush strokes. As a way to fulfill her creative expression, Carmen uses an approach to layer acrylic paints on canvas to depict the Canadian landscape with a focus on nature's natural surroundings. 

Carmen's passion for creating art was instilled at a young age, and she continues to enroll in workshops to continuously learn and follow her artistic endeavours. Each piece she creates has a specific narrative, and she aspires to capture a sense of peace and tranquility in her landscape and floral paintings. 

Carmen resides in Ottawa, and as an avid outdoor enthusiast, she is actively skiing, biking, or hiking with her family in her spare time.
