Solo Social Distance Dancing

    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Monday he would call on prominent Canadians to spread the word about the importance of solo social distance dancing during the novel coronavirus pandemic, and it looks like the Great Dominion’s beloved Court Painter is at the top of that list.

    At a press conference Monday, Trudeau teased a multi-million dollar ad campaign involving this prominent yet obscure Canadian figure we “kinda know and kinda trust” in messaging around flattening the COVID-19 curve.

    Court Painter got the ball rolling Monday night from his studio pulling moves on those ole dance favourites like the Mashed Potato (started long time ago),the Twist,(Come on, baby) the Light Fandango and the Plague Pirouette Two Step while calling on Canadians to take solo social distance dancing seriously and stay home to prevent the spread of the unique if not novel coronavirus.

    Afternoon Tea Cancelled

    Afternoon Tea at the Court Painter studio will be discontinued until further notice.

    I think we all know why!

    This wonderful drop in social event for visiting politicians, celebrities and local wannabes has been a feature of Court Painter’s community outreach for years.

    As a public service, Court Painter has put together a visual review of highlights from memorable afternoon tea events for your viewing pleasure.

    You’re Welcome!

    Let the hoarding begin…

      Hoarding vs. Collecting

      Let’s be clear, hoarding is not the same as collecting. In general, collectors of Court Painter masterworks have a sense of pride about their possessions and they experience joy in displaying and talking about them. They usually keep their collection organized, feel satisfaction when adding to it, and usually add to their collection when Court Painter cleans out his storage at the end of the month.

      On the other hand, those who hoard toilet paper usually experience no embarrassment about their obsession and don’t feel uncomfortable when others see them leaving the supermarket with multiple pacs of toilet paper . They clutter up their living spaces however feel proud after acquiring multiple rolls and in times of pandemics it is a badge of honour among hoarders to be well equipped to wipe away fear from their vulnerable bottoms.
