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 November’s annual “Julia Veenstra & Friends” show, featuring a roster of 46 incredible artists selected by Julia Veenstra herself. 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.

🇨🇦 Barbara Reade (@bdreade_art) completed her BFA in Illustration at Parsons School of Design in New York City. Her artistic career has come full circle after many rewarding years in education and as a retail business owner. Barbara paints out of her light-filled studio in downtown Burlington that she shares with her two studio cats, Forrest and Jenny. Barbara’s paintings appear in private collections throughout North America. Barbara says: “As an abstract artist, my work is an exploration of energy and the intangible connections that shape our human experience. I am drawn to the interplay of colour, texture, and form to create pieces that evoke a sense of energy and movement. Every painting is an instinctual response to a thought or feeling, evolving through layers of experimentation and discovery. I work with acrylic and mixed media, allowing for complete freedom in my process. Inspired by nature, music, and the rhythms of daily life, I aim to capture fleeting moments of recognition and introspection. Each piece is a dialogue between intention and spontaneity – a balance of control and surrender. I begin every painting with play and a willingness to let the painting develop organically. Never knowing where a piece is headed keeps my studio practice fresh, unpredictable and dynamic. A painting is complete when there is just the right balance between wildness and precision. Recent work has focused on creating a series of floral-inspired paintings. This collection is more about what flowers feel like to me, rather than a literal representation. These paintings are an explosion of colour, petal shapes, meandering lines, and abstracted backgrounds that suggest all things garden, summery and fragrant.” See more at: barbarareade.com
🇨🇦 Ashley Way (@ashleywayart) says: "My art is inspired by the beauty that surrounds us every day. Nature has a way of creating calm in the fast-paced world around us. I aim to bring a sense of peace and tranquility to the viewer. I also draw inspiration from my childhood living in Newfoundland, as well as time spent in Prince Edward Island. My love of the North Atlantic coast of Canada is evident in many of my pieces, with themes of the natural world present throughout. When I'm not painting, you will find me working as a pediatric nurse or taking a variety of art courses."
🇨🇦 Arwynn Davey (@arwynnd) is an established fine art painter. Her work is a collection of joyful, detailed paintings of motifs such as dandelion wishes, sunrises, sweet birds and wildlife. Each piece strives to capture the feelings of optimism, hope, whimsy and pure joy. See more at: arwynn.com
🇨🇦 Amanda Christina (@amandachristina_art) is a Canadian contemporary artist working primarily in acrylic. Her atmospheric landscapes explore light, stillness, memory, and the emotional resonance of place. Inspired by water, forests, open skies, and shifting natural light, Amanda builds her paintings through layered colour, softened edges, and luminous contrasts. Rather than documenting specific landscapes, her work distills them into feeling - creating spaces that are familiar yet undefined, suspended somewhere between memory and imagination. Light is a recurring presence throughout her practice, often emerging through darker, quieter passages of the painting. This tension between shadow and illumination reflects Amanda’s ongoing interest in resilience, transformation, and the moments of beauty that exist within uncertainty.
