Creative Art Management presents an exclusive art fundraiser at the Canvas Lounge in Vancouver, Canada – by Liza J. Lee
Media Invitation
On Wednesday, October 21, 2009 (6 pm to 9 pm), Creative Art Management will present a series of innovative and intuitive paintings, “What Lies Within” by emerging artist, Linda Murphy at the Canvas Lounge. This event also marks the launch of Creative Art Management, based in Vancouver (Canada), with plans to expand to New York (U.S.) and London (U.K.). Appetizers, champagne and wine will be served at this chic event.
As an ongoing commitment to the community, Creative Art Management will donate 10 percent of the evening sales to the Canuck Place Children’s Hospice. This charity supports children living with a life-threatening illnesses and assistance for their families throughout British Columbia. Because of the generosity of donors and volunteers, Canuck Place Children’s Hospice is able to provide these services free of charge.
The evening exhibition “What Lies Within” was inspired by Emerson’s line: “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” In 2007, this thought ignited a fire in artist, Linda Murphy that fueled an intense curiousity into the nature of existence as expressed in her latest paintings. To create this series, she allowed her instinct to guide the automatic nature of the painting process to burst open the doors of the subconscious, and possibly the collective unconscious. It was Murphy’s exploration of meditation, shamanism, metaphysics and spirituality that led her to find ‘art-as-teacher’ with acrylic paints, rags, brushes, palette knifes and by hand.
Ioulia Reynolds of Creative Art Management is the producer and art dealer of the “What Lies Within” fundraiser. Her vision is to help build the careers of emerging artists and to take them to the world-wide art scene. As a graduate of the London Sotheby’s Institute of Art and alumni of a private fine art school in Moscow, Russia, along with her global connections, Ioulia Reynolds is well-qualified as an international art dealer.
“What Lies Within” is showing at the Canvas Lounge 99 Powell Street, Vancouver. The venue offers an upscale and intimate space for its sophisticated crowd. To find out more about this exclusive evening event and for Media RSVP, please contact Reynolds directly below.

Malcolm Parry, Vancouver Sun – October 24, 2009
MINING NIGHT: Another take-charge woman of the Russian variety showed brio this week. The locale was eastern Gastown’s Canvas Lounge, where Ioulia Reynolds launched her Creative Art Management firm by displaying Linda Murphy’s paintings to benefit Canuck Place Children’s Hospice. The $2,600 to $8,250 prices seemed a tad high for an artist curator Liza Lee called “emerging,” But five works sold, so what do I know?
Definitely emerging, too, is Lee herself. Art-game ears should prick up as she undertakes weightier projects.
As for Reynolds, 18-month husband Damien aided the night’s benevolent purpose by recruiting some of his mining-and financial-industry pals. He’s the chap who founded Longview Capital Partners — assets $20.03 million — in 2005. This spring, he was succeeded as Chair-CEO by lawyer Hein Poulos, and now heads Seedrock Capital Partners Ltd.
