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 September’s show “Autumn” featuring a roster of 39 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.

🇺🇸 Joe Ziolkowski (@ziolkowski_originalz) is a Central Montana-based painter whose work explores the dynamic relationship between color, contrast, and the layering of watercolor mediums applied to uncommon surfaces. He combines traditional styles and methods with contemporary approaches to surface preparation and preservation, working on horn, wood, bone, and metal. Joe’s approach to visual storytelling is rooted in design fundamentals and a deep understanding of how the human eye consumes a subject. His works include landscapes, wildlife, and scenes of inspiration born from the richness of life’s experiences. See more at: originalz.net
🇺🇸 Michigan-born artist Catherine Williams (@cathywilliams_art) has always been creative and originally dreamed of becoming an art teacher. After graduating with a BA in Arts, she continued developing her artistic practice through local art lessons and college courses in drawing and watercolor. Bob Ross was an early inspiration, while a love of nature and the outdoors continues to influence her work, with a focus on creating that experience for the viewer. Catherine has explored a variety of mediums and creative projects, from painting in oils and acrylics to creating birdhouse crafts and painting pumpkin faces for her uncle’s farm. In 2018, she and a friend started a painting party business, teaching others how to paint with acrylics. She continues to experiment with new techniques and approaches, finding joy and inspiration through art.
🇨🇦 Serena West (@serenafineart) is a Canadian landscape artist living in Muskoka, Ontario, where windswept pines, pristine lakes, rocky shorelines, and abundant forests inspire much of her work. After studying at the Dundas Valley School of Art in partnership with McMaster University, Serena began her career as a mural artist before finding her way to expressive landscape painting. Working primarily in acrylic, she uses bold brushwork, layered colour, and movement to capture not just what a landscape looks like, but how it feels. Serena’s work is represented in galleries and artist collectives. Her paintings are emotional impressions of the Canadian landscape, shaped by memory, light, colour, and the feeling of being outdoors. In her own words, Serena hopes to create paintings that help collectors “bring the wild places home.” See more at: serenafineart.com
🇺🇸 Rita Vicari (@ri.inc) is a Russian-born mixed media artist based in Texas. She is a graduate of the Mastery Program at the Milan Art Institute, where she later became a mentor, guiding emerging artists in developing their artistic voice and creative confidence. Rita discovered her passion for visual art while living in South Korea after an earlier career in choreography and a lifelong love of poetry. These influences continue to shape her layered practice, which combines painting, collage, texture, and symbolic imagery. Her work often features women, animals, florals, and architectural frames, exploring themes of becoming, transformation, and the beauty found in life's unfolding journey. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including solo exhibitions in Seoul and Texas, and group exhibitions in New York, Miami, and Dallas. She has also participated in Art Expo New York, The Other Art Fair by Saatchi Art, and Affordable Art Fair NYC. Her paintings are held in private collections throughout the United States and internationally. See more at: ri-inc.gallery
