Fringe: The Moment Before — Alice by Heart - 24x36 inches - Gallery depth on canvas

$820.00

I painted this piece after attending a Fringe show at Strathcona High School in Edmonton—a production of Alice by Heart that a friend of mine helped musically direct. What stayed with me wasn’t just the performance itself, but the moment just before it begins—the glowing stage, the audience settling in, and that quiet anticipation in the room.

This work captures that in-between space where everything is about to unfold. It’s a moment filled with possibility, connection, and shared experience—one that anyone who has sat in a theatre, waiting for the lights to dim, will recognize.

For collectors, this piece holds that feeling of pause and presence—the kind of moment that lingers, long after the curtain rises.
