Last year, Old Ottawa East resident and artist Louise Rachlis exhibited her artwork in front of her Graham Avenue home as a featured local artist in A Walk of Art, the annual Old Ottawa East outdoor art tour. Rachlis is delighted to participate once again this year in A Walk of Art which is scheduled for Saturday, September 23rd.
One of her newest paintings is of The Green Door restaurant at nighttime. “Ever since moving to Graham Avenue in 1998, The Green Door has been a favourite place to eat, and also a neighbourhood landmark,” she says. “All I have to say is, ‘I live walking distance to The Green Door,’ and there is immediate recognition – and a desire to go out to eat.”
Three of Rachlis’s paintings were recently displayed inside Ears on Main, at 139 Main Street. Owner and registered audiologist Angie O’Connor has made her walls available for the artists of Old Ottawa East to display and sell their work druing the month of September.
