Alley is Clark’s place of work and play

By Ashley Martin At age four, Kevin Clark started bowling. He kept at it in friendly competition with his older brother Doug. Today, 36 years after grasping that first bowling ball, he still loves the sport — so much so that he’s made it his full-time job.

For the past year, he has worked as the marketing manager of the Golden Mile Bowling Lanes. The alley holds a lot of memories for Clark, who made this his bowling home base as a teenager.

Q: How did you start bowling?

A: When you have three kids, sports are expensive. My brother (Doug) and myself were both doing hockey and bowling, and (my parents) finally said, “OK you guys have a choice” ... We both decided just to continue bowling.

When you’re that age of six and seven you never really feel like getting up at five in the morning to go play hockey. We decided, “Bowling doesn’t start till nine, let’s bowl.”

We went through the Youth Bowling Council (YBC) ... from four to 18.

From there on we continued, Doug had more success than I did in the youth ranks; he was one of the top in Canada at his age. I didn’t have as much success. I didn’t start blooming until I was 19, 20.

I just excelled from there, and once you start getting good at something, you want to continue doing it.

And me and him, we have a pretty good rivalry. We’re always competing against each other.

Q: Do you still play together?

A: Oh yeah. We were down at the Canadian nationals this year on the men’s team for Saskatchewan; we were in Newfoundland. We had fun.

Q: What kept you bowling all these years?

A: I think it was the competitiveness that I had with Doug. He really enjoyed it and he was so good at

what he did, I wanted to get better at what I did.

Q: When did you start bowling at the Golden Mile?

A: I’ve been here for 25 years, but I started out at the Prairie Lanes before it was torn down and a Canadian Tire went up (at Albert and 1st).

(Golden Mile) was the nicest centre; the staff were very, very friendly; the coaching was very good. Today it’s still the same. I’m not saying this because I’m one of the managers,

but it’s one of the more premiere centres in the city.

I had a lot of friends that moved down here to the YBC program and through the adult ranks and you just seem to follow them.

I wanted to get better at what I did and a lot of people that were excelling were from out of here, so you want to go where the competition is.

Q: What do you like about bowling?

A: My favourite thing that I’ve liked about bowling is the friends I’ve made across Canada (in tourna-

ments); there’s a lot. You get to see them once or twice a year but when you do see them, you cherish those moments that you have with them.

That’s my favourite part, the competitiveness and bowling against them.

(At the Golden Mile) our eldest senior, she just passed away before the summer, and she was 94. She was very well respected around here. ...

It’s just a sport that anybody and everybody can play. You don’t have to be athletic. You don’t have to be smart. You just have to come out and

have fun, that’s all you have to do.

Q: What’s it like working at a bowling alley?

A: I love it. It’s really good because I can teach people as I’m working; I don’t have to come down on my time off and teach people. I know so many people in the industry. The sport is my job.

Q: What’s your best memory of this bowling alley?

A: There’s too many. It’s just a fun place to be.

THE DRESS FORM

Stacey Laing made good use of her hoarding tendencies by starting a business. The Dress Form stemmed from her love of vintage shopping. An avid antiquer, she’d frequently find things that were too good to pass up, even though they weren’t her size. So she decided to sell them.

Since launching her online store, Laing has shipped to every continent. She has also amped up her thrifting while travelling; her inventory comes from across North America and Europe.

Laing loves learning the history and stories behind her beautiful clothes and accessories. A favourite is a lace cocktail dress, worn on New Year’s Eve in 1952.

Find The Dress Form at etsy. com/shop/thedressform. Laing will also be supplying the vintage

More than any other show in my life, the Regina show was important. I wanted to make sure I got it right. — Andrew Salgado

ANDREW SALGADO

Former Regina artist renewing acquaintances

By Andrew Matte When artist Andrew Salgado switched to oil from acrylic, he had no idea it would become an important life moment.

He had been drawn to oils for artistic reasons, but he was stunned to discover the odours were familiar. He was flooded with memories from his childhood and his grandmother, one of the first people to recognize his talent and offer encouragement.

“It’s quite touching for me to think about that now …

I always remembered that her basement had this peculiar smell but I never knew what it was until then,” says Salgado of Elizabeth Bassendowski, who would prepare for her grandson’s visits by setting up a blank canvas beside her own work, which included landscapes, images of grain elevators and other Saskatchewan themes.

“It reminded me of this connection I have to her.”

As Salgado’s reputation in the art world grows and demand rises for his bold paintings that combine elements of abstract art and portraiture, he’s quick to praise his advocates, like his grandmother. And that’s no surprise, given Salgado grew up preferring moulding clay to playing hockey, came out as a gay teen in an often-intolerant Prairie city and was raised by science-minded parents.

“I wasn’t a misfit. I was valedictorian. I had outstanding support from my parents, my friends and family,” says Salgado, who lives in London and has enjoyed recent high-profile exhibits in far-flung places like New York, Korea and Switzerland.

“But I was the black sheep, too.”

Today, Salgado is preparing for a trip home, where the Art Gallery of Regina is presenting The Acquaintance, an eight-piece exhibit Salgado believes reflects his voice better than any other exhibit has.

And like most recent Salgado shows, every painting, selling for $10,000 or more, was sold weeks before it travelled across the pond.

“More than any other show in my life, the Regina show was important. I wanted to make sure I got it right,” he says.

“And I think I hit the nail on the head.”

■ ■ ■ The last 18 months have been a rebirth for Salgado. He recently turned 30 and believes his latest work reflects his newfound maturity and confidence, as well as sharpened skills that enable him to communicate through his art better than ever. He’s come a long way, figuratively and logistically, since his days at Dr. Martin LeBoldus High School, his job as a waiter in Vancouver and his 2008 move to England where he earned a master’s degree at the prestigious Chelsea College of Art in London.

My work has been a response to a lot of anxieties, angst, coming out when I was 19 and when I was the victim of a hate crime. The anger, the vulnerability and political aspect of that, it was a crusade through paint. — Salgado

“The work I am doing now, it’s the first work that is truly my voice. It’s a cliché thing to say but this show in Regina is the first show I’ve had that is 100-per-cent my voice from start to finish,” says Salgado, whose work is available at the art marketplace saatchionline.com.

And the art world seems to appreciate Salgado’s recent maturation.

His paintings are sometimes bought by collectors who place orders without seeing the work. And it’s not uncommon for a gallery several time zones away to call and ask when the next Salgado might be ready.

“As my paintings become available, they get snatched up, which is pretty hard for me to believe. It’s a little too good to be true,” he says.

Media interest continues to rise, and critics continue to praise Salgado for his seven-foot-high paintings of brash, colourful figures that convey messages of anger, displeasure

and everything in between.

British poet and art critic Edward Lucie-Smith believes Salgado is breathing new life into the art community. “At a time when painting itself often seems to be a threatened, even despised, form of artistic activity, Andrew Salgado emerges as a dazzlingly skilful advocate for the medium he has chosen to embrace,” galleries quote him as saying.

Art Gallery of Regina curator Karen Schoonover says Salgado’s evolving technique, which he uses as a tool to communicate a message, is among the reasons he’s viewed as unique.

“Usually, the focus of a painting is the subject matter. But with Andrew’s work, you’re very aware of every brush stroke and how the paint interacts with the brush and how it interacts with the canvas … there is a real energy to how he applies the brush strokes.”

Andrew Salgado enjoys an international reputation for his largescale, colourful paintings that are a mix of abstract and portraiture.

The fear of failure keeps a lot of artists in tow. But the true artists cross boundaries.

And Andrew is doing that constantly today. — Ward Schell

Salgado describes his recent work this way: “A painting can be a painting on its own, but there is also a deeper message there I am trying to get across. I look at broad issues of hatred and ignorance and prejudice. It’s done in an ambiguous way.”

■

■ ■

Childhood art that hangs on a wall at the Salgado home in Regina illustrates the contrasting priorities of the Salgado brothers. When Andrew was in Kindergarten and Jon in Grade 1, the brothers were asked to decorate separate bits of paper as part of an after-school activity. Today, the “cat art” hangs side-by-side in their parents’ bedroom.

“I ripped the head off mine and taped it back together. And then I glued on a patch of black wool,” Jon Salgado says. “Andrew had all these even brush strokes and colours blending nicely into each other. I look back at that now and I think, ‘Yeah, there were signs’.”

Andrew was affected by his emotions more than most, had the opposite tastes in music and movies as his brother and was never interested in sports.

A baseball team manager once called a time out as Andrew was up at bat ready to swing in the opposite direction. And Andrew the soccer player mysteriously stood in place on the field during a game as a ball rolled past him.

“That is where the coach told me to stand,” Andrew said later.

But sports weren’t on his radar because he was so attracted to art. His focus was friendship, and he had a personality that attracted people, his brother says.

“Andy had zero in common with a lot of my friends. But when I’d go out to play in a basketball game or whatever, everybody wanted to hang out with him. They all loved Andrew.”

His brother faced challenges, however, especially in the years prior to his coming out at 19.

“It was a struggle for him obviously, but it was a struggle for us as a family too. It took us a little while,” says Jon, who became

a father this year and made Andrew an enthusiastic uncle. “He did seem to take things more personally and internalize things.

I remember going to my parents when I was in high school and telling them I thought something was up. But that would have been around the time he was figuring things out for himself.”

Sandra Bassendowski says art defined her youngest son for as long as she can remember.

“All he ever wanted were his Crayolas and blank sheets of paper, but not a colouring book,” says Bassendowski. “We enrolled him in every art class there was at the Neil Balkwill Centre. I think he was 10 or 11 and they came to us and said that if we wanted to enrol him in the adult classes, we could.”

Bassendowski says she and Andrew’s father, Regina physician Luis Salgado, had their clearest view of their son’s talent after he shared a drawing he created in a Grade 11 art class.

“He came home at Christmas and unrolled this piece he’d been working on. And I was speechless. I could not believe it. I always knew he was talented and we always supported him, but I couldn’t believe the talent that came out on that piece of canvas,” says Bassendowski of the sketch of American singer Tori Amos, which still hangs in her living room.

“Today, whenever I see a piece of art, I see Andrew.”

Bassendowski, a professor at the Regina campus of the University of Saskatchewan’s School of Nursing, concedes to being a little nervous when, in high school, Andrew dismissed suggestions he should consider a less risky career than artist. She still worries, as good mothers of adult sons do, but less so these days.

“I remember he told me one day that people who are successful work really hard at what they do. And he said, ‘I am prepared to work really hard.’

“I miss him tremendously.

We’re just so proud of him.”

After graduating from LeBoldus, Salgado attended the University of Regina for two years before moving to Vancouver, where he completed his bachelor of fine arts degree at UBC. He continued to paint while studying and working as a waiter before deciding to become a full-time artist.

He applied to Chelsea College because he wanted to experience life outside North America.

“I chose London because I wanted to get away from what I view as a North American

convention of painting ... I wanted to get as far away from that as I could.”

Though he didn’t enjoy studying in England, he loved London and what it offered a young artist.

“I admit that I’ve become a little bit of a London snob. I think it’s the greatest city in the world,” says Salgado.

“It’s has an edgy, cultural, Bohemian vibe to it. It’s not the London that most people think London is,” he says of the neighbourhood of Shoreditch.

By this time, he’d been living with his part-

ner of seven years. Salgado met the Maritimer and RCMP recruit in Regina; they moved together to B.C. and then to London where he now works in business. Salgado declined to reveal details of their relationship because their professional lives sometimes overlap; he prefers to separate their careers from their home life.

They live in an apartment and Salgado recently moved to a 500-square-foot studio that gives him the space and freedom to work on large canvasses. Usually working on several paintings at a time, Salgado thrives working

long hours in isolation.

“There is a part of me that is insular. I crave these eight or nine hours a day by myself completely isolated,” he says. “I like my time alone. I put on my music and I’ll work on my painting. It’s amazing how fast 10 hours can go by.”

Though Salgado’s work has evolved significantly since his Kindergarten cat project, he admits that his art has been fuelled by nowsolved anxieties and the trauma from an attack he and his partner suffered at a B.C. music festival.

People aren’t ambivalent about my paintings. OK paintings don’t move people. Nice paintings don’t motivate or inspire people. — Salgado

“My work has been a response to a lot of anxieties, angst, coming out when I was 19 and when I was the victim of a hate crime. The anger, the vulnerability and political aspect of that, it was a crusade through paint,” says Salgado, rebuffing questions about the assault.

“It happened so long ago. And I’m so sick of telling the story. Plus, I’m over it.

“I went through a very difficult period in my 20s. I was anxious about everything, concerned about my career and all that. But now that I am 30, I’ve mellowed out and I’m able to get my message out in less of an angry way.

“The struggle is now over. I’m in a super gay-friendly city. I have super supportive friends and family and I am in a super gay-friendly career path.”

Salgado dismisses suggestions that all of his art has homosexual

themes or that he’s an angry, maladjusted painter.

“People have this misconception that any good art has to come from a tortured artist. People think I am this dark, brooding, deep person.

But then people tell me, ‘You’re rather amicable, polite and fun.’”

Salgado emphasizes self-editing, listening to criticism and challenging himself to improve, all of which he believes has contributed to his success.

“There are probably elements of luck or synchronicity, but at the same time, I believe in hard work and humility. I work really hard at what I do. I see a lot of artists who don’t want to put in the time but they want the rewards,” he says.

And the strong messages, large canvasses and bold images are purposeful.

“My work has always split people,” he says. “One person will ab-

solutely love my painting and another person would absolutely hate it. People aren’t ambivalent about my paintings. OK paintings don’t move people. Nice paintings don’t motivate or inspire people.”

“One comment I sometimes hear is, ‘Your work is so beautiful. But it’s also dark and creepy.’ I love hearing that.”

■ ■ ■ While exhibits in Regina don’t carry the same cache as shows in New York, Tokyo or Cape Town, The Acquaintance is viewed as a significant event to Regina art lovers.

Donna Columpsi, a retired teacher who taught art at LeBoldus and who Salgado calls one of his most important mentors as a teen, is eager to see the eight recent pieces.

“It was a privilege to have taught Andrew and to be a part of his journey. I am so proud of the man he

has become.”

Ward Schell, who taught art at the Balkwill and had Salgado as a student from the time he was about eight, says Salgado’s success wasn’t a surprise.

“A lot of students have skill, but Andrew had a passion for art the likes I’d never seen,” said Schell.

“The fear of failure keeps a lot of artists in tow. But the true artists cross boundaries. And Andrew is doing that constantly today.”

Schell will be among the first through the doors at the exhibit’s opening.

“I can’t wait to get in front of those monsters.”

(The Acquaintance runs Oct. 9 to Nov. 22 at the Art Gallery of Regina, 2420 Elphinstone St. Salgado will give an artist talk on Oct. 21 at 7:30 Salgado completed this sketch of Tori Amos p.m. and attend a reception on Oct. as a teenager; it hangs in his mother’s home in Regina.

SALGADO SAYS: I don’t give a shit about sports, fashion or celebrity.

I care about art, culture, people and a good conversation.

I’m not the same person I was a year ago. And I don’t want to be the same person I was a year ago. I want to move forward and do what’s important to me.

’

’

I get calls from young people who tell me that I have made it. But I haven’t made it because I want to be challenging myself every year.

’

For four years, I painted paintings of men that had a very strong political message. And I know that I lose a significant percentage of my following because of that. But on the other hand, I know that I win over some new people. That comes with the confidence.

’

People say ‘you should paint more women’ or paint something 200cm by 200cm. So it’s a liberating thing to be able to do. I suppose that’s me being an artistic badass.

’

’ I hate talking about (the attack in 2008). But I admit that the hate crime contributed in some way to the person I am and the art I do.

’

’

If there is one person who was more inspiring to me when I was in high school, it was Donna Columpsi. She said: ‘You need to follow this. You need to take this forward.’

’

A PRESENT FROM THE PAST: Andrew Salgado was still living in Regina in 2005 when the Leader-Post snapped this picture prior to his participation in an art competition. FILE PHOTO BY ROY ANTAL

My goal is that walk between figurative and abstraction.

It walks this fine line of duality as being figurative and totally abstract. I hope that people who see my paintings will see that, and see the layers, the beauty, the sensuous aspect to the paintings. People aren’t used to reading art in a figurative way.

’

’

My relationship with paint is beyond a material relationship. It’s a sensuous desire to paint and explore the properties of paint.

Paint still surprises me. It has its own life.

SALGADO SAYS: I don’t give a sh** about sports, fashion or celebrity.

I care about art, culture, people and a good conversation.

I’m not the same person I was a year ago. And I don’t want to be the same person I was a year ago. I want to move forward and do what’s important to me.

’

’

I get calls from young people who tell me that I have made it. But I haven’t made it because I want to be challenging myself every year.

’

For four years, I painted paintings of men that had a very strong political message. And I know that I lose a significant percentage of my following because of that. But on the other hand, I know that I win over some new people. That comes with the confidence.

’

People say ‘you should paint more women’ or paint something 200cm by 200cm. So it’s a liberating thing to be able to do. I suppose that’s me being an artistic badass.

’

’ I hate talking about (the attack in 2008). But I admit that the hate crime contributed in some way to the person I am and the art I do.

’

’

If there is one person who was more inspiring to me when I was in high school, it was Donna Columpsi. She said: ‘You need to follow this. You need to take this forward.’

My goal is that walk between figurative and abstraction.

It walks this fine line of duality as being figurative and totally abstract. I hope that people who see my paintings will see that, and see the layers, the beauty, the sensuous aspect to the paintings. People aren’t used to reading art in a figurative way.

’

’

My relationship with paint is beyond a material relationship. It’s a sensuous desire to paint and explore the properties of paint.

Paint still surprises me. It has its own life.

I don’t paint men because they are the object of my desire. I paint men because, as a homosexual man who was the victim of a hate crime, I think I have some important things to say.

Romancing the Tee Shot: The Five-Iron Murder

I thought it may be a good idea to write my third novel employing three literary styles, or genres, as the experts call them. I would try to create a fabric consisting of colourful threads from sports, romance and mystery.

This would attract readers from all three interest groups and should be a boon to our homebased, self-publishing business run since 2005 with my wife as partner. Learning the distribution and marketing game has also been a great challenge for us.

Research has shown that men

Author Howard Birnie

Lo ca l AUT H O RS: Writers tell us what makes their book worth reading

do not read books as much as women. It was my hidden wish that blending golf with the other two genres might tease them to read at least one novel this year.

It turns out that the composition was quite a challenge, especially for a retired science teacher whose academic background is not in English.

My protagonist is a 22-yearold female university graduate named Linda who has decided to forestall a teaching career to try to make it on a professional golf tour. I try to describe the surviv-

al trials of these young women as they compete for a living on a golf tour that winds through the United States and into the Prairie provinces of Canada.

Since I have played competitively for many years, a careful analysis of the great game of golf carries the plot. Our son, a golf professional, ensured I did not make serious golf errors.

I try in my novels not to dodge controversial current social problems. The romance theme involves our heroine and a graduate philosophy student. Young adults would enjoy following

their story as they wrestle with the temptations of premarital sex. The whole problem of forgiveness is explored between Linda and her estranged father, who abandoned the family when she was 17. One of Linda’s golfing friends is involved in a same-sex relationship. Professional golfers have lives too.

Finally, Linda’s caddy is found murdered in a motel and her fingerprints are everywhere.

Weaving the romance and golf through the mystery story will lead to a solution that even the most skilled case-solvers wouldn’t guess. Let me know what you think of novels that mix literary genres. This book is available at McNally Robinson and Market Mall Coles in Saskatoon.

Do you know of an amazing space in Regina? Tell us about it!

Email QC@leaderpost.com.

Yard has blossomed since owner’s childhood

By Ashley Martin WHO? Ida Claude.

WHAT? The backyard of her north Regina bungalow.

WHEN? Claude moved back into this house 11 years ago. The house belonged to her parents and she grew up here.

The yard was nothing like it is today. The space was an all-dirt mechanics’ paradise, with cars always parked awaiting work.

“We still dig up old bolts and pieces out of the dirt,” she says.

She wanted to create an oasis for herself and started working on the yard the first summer after moving in.

HOW? It started with little flower beds near the house and fence, which is made of wood from pallets. Claude got Virginia Creeper from a friend of her neighbour and things expanded from there.

“It wasn’t big enough, so it just grew and grew and every year there’s a different change going on.”

This year almost all of the flower beds were done in pink, her favourite colour.

She’s always on the lookout for decorative accents: The yard is full of little statues. “I have frogs, fairies and I just started with gnomes the last couple years.”

One special statue is of a shih-tzu, in honour of her deceased dog.

Pine seedlings, elms, wild cherry, plum and chokecherry trees provide a variety of greenery around the rock path that encircles the yard.

An old church pew offers seating, and a fire pit was repurposed from an old safe.

The space is a constant work in progress.

Claude wants to finish the back end of the yard, which is currently a mishmash of grandchildren’s toys. She’d like to tear down the old garage and get a storage shed. She is uncertain whether to install a gazebo or a swimming pool as the next step.

WHY? Even though maintaining a large yard is a lot of work, it pays off when Claude can wind down and write poetry on her favourite bench in the shade of the pine tree.

“It’s just relaxing.”

Joey Kuntz: Relaxed and refined

By Ashley Martin 1.

Comfort is key for Joey Kuntz, but too much of a good thing can be bad for you.

As owner of JJ’s Optical Gallery, image is always on his radar. He’s always encouraging his customers to have fun and get out of their comfort zone when choosing new glasses.

“I joke around with some clients saying it’s not what you put on but what you can pull off.”

He has the same approach to his own wardrobe. Of course, working six days a week, feeling relaxed is a priority.

“It’s just about feeling comfortable with yourself and dressing in a way that makes you feel confident. That’s it,” says Kuntz. “And just take a little time to put things together. It takes just as long to look good as it does to look bad.”

He sticks to a standard formula of jeans, boots, dress shirts and ties for most occasions.

“It’s not much different than this, unless I’m gardening.”

History lives in Tutty’s sweet songs

By Ashley Martin Many songs tell a story, but few are so epic as Paddy Tutty’s.

Even though some of the traditional ballads she sings have upward of 40 verses, the Saskatoon folksinger doesn’t have a problem remembering the lyrics.

“You learn the story and at least it’s logical,” she says with a laugh.

“And actually many of those ballads are from oral traditions, so they were always sung without having a lyric sheet or anything; they were told like stories.

“In some ways non-narrative songs for me are harder to learn than ballads just because they don’t tell a story and they’re not necessarily logical.”

Tutty gravitated to traditional British folk decades ago, the music of her ancestors who hail from England, Ireland and Wales.

And in 2009, when she began researching her family’s genealogy, music and history collided.

“I was kind of in this headspace of 1895 and looking at all these old records online ... On one hand I’m doing all this genealogy and on the other hand I’ve been playing all this music for ages, but some of it kind of hit home a bit more.”

But it was a Joni Mitchell concert, and not a history review, that offered Tutty her first introduction to one of her favoured instruments, the fretted dulcimer.

Years ago, “I was at the last row of the third balcony in TCU Place, which was called the Centennial Auditorium at the time, and seeing Joni Mitchell and she had a dulcimer.” It sounds like a brighter-toned, higher-pitched guitar but it’s played on the lap.

The concertina, a sweet-sounding accordion-like instrument, is another favourite. And guitar is always on standby.

Tutty’s old style met new technology for the first time in recording her latest album, The Last Holdout, with engineer Paul Gitlitz. It was released

this month.

It’s her sixth album, but her first done digitally. She last recorded in analog with producer Ian Tamblyn 15 years ago and has been collaborating with other musicians in the time since.

“You remember old analog? No one

does. Analog was recording on actual magnetic tape, two-inch magnetic tape, with different channels.”

As technology has changed, so has Tutty’s approach to the music career she started in the early ’80s.

“I’m not 20 years old anymore,” she says. “I had a lot of blind ambition

when I started doing this too. You’re just gung ho and you just do it. I did that probably for 20 years, that kind of crazy, crazy, ‘Yes I’ll play anywhere, I will go and get $50.’ The problem is it was $50, 30 years ago; it’s still $50 and that’s not what the cost of living is anymore.”

That said, she plans on getting around Saskatchewan soon. You can catch Tutty at Saskatoon’s The Bassment on Nov. 2 as she opens for David Essig.

She’s due for a show in Regina too, though nothing has been scheduled yet.

kicked out FUNDRAISER

Tattoos for shoes focus of park fundraiser

By Andrew Matte Regina tattoo shops, musicians and skateboarders are joining forces next month in a unique fundraiser for a new indoor skateboard park for the Queen City.

The event, called Kicked Out, is slated on Nov. 8 at The Exchange and came about after Regina’s indoor skateboard park was demolished this summer.

And since the skateboard community often overlaps with communities of musicians and tattoo artists, this combination auction/rock show was organized.

“It’s a great cause. And since a lot of people who work at tattoo shops are skateboarders or at least know a lot of skateboarders, this sort of thing made sense,” said B.J. Zeiger, a tattoo artist at Regina’s Planet Caravan.

The focus of the event is an auction of World of Trout-donated shoes, which Zeiger has circulated among Regina tattoo artists for customizing.

Each participating artist has been given one pair of plain white VANS and asked to turn them into customcoloured shoes in time for the Nov. 8 event.

“I’m probably going to do a Japanese-influenced thing that melds with a North American theme. That is what a lot of my stuff usually winds up looking like,” said Kevin Leippi, a tattoo artist and owner of Traditional Tattoo.

The Evraz Place-owned park was collapsed as part of the demolition of the Heritage Building to make way for the new football stadium. The city had contributed $37,000 a year in funding for the Heritage Building facility and has pledged its support in helping find a new location with SK8 Regina, the group of skateboard enthusiasts leading the fundraising effort.

SK8 Regina’s Noel Wendt, who says a new park will cost more than $100,000 a year in operating and lease costs, admits looking for a space to accommodate a skateboard park has been frustrating.

Kevin Leippi (right), who owns and operates Traditional Tattoo in Regina, and Alyssa Tiefenbach (above), an artist who works at the shop, will participate in a fundraiser where local tattoo artists will design custom graphics for donated shoes. The shoes will be auctioned at Kicked Out on Nov. 8 to raise money for a new indoor skateboard park. QC PHOTOS BY ANDREW MATTE

“We had a lead on a place but that fell through. Real estate in Regina is nuts,” said Wendt, who also owns and operates a local skateboard shop The Tiki Room.

Wendt says finding space in Regina’s low-vacancy market is especially tough because a skateboard park needs at least 6,000 square feet and 15-foot high ceilings. It also needs an open space where structural posts won’t pose a danger to skaters.

“We were fortunate to have the space at the Heritage Building for as long as we did,” said Wendt, adding he holds no animosity toward the city for not working harder to find a new location. “It would be nice if they built us a new building or something, but I understand that they get lots of requests for funding for all sorts of groups.”

Wendt lauds the organizers of Kicked Out, which will help finan-

cially, but also reminds the estimated 3,600 Regina skateboarders that SK8 Regina is still at work.

“Every little bit helps but it also helps out from an awareness point of view.”

Kicked Out will feature performances by Regina rock bands Digital Doomzday, Bats Out and Circles and Revolution. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at Planet Caravan, 2415 11th Ave.

He left for back home, about 1,000 miles away. He says he’s coming back for work in a few weeks and wants to see me.

I’m almost positive this guy used me as a booty call. I never want to go back to that dark, sleazy place again.

But I do want to see him face to face. I want to be friends with him, but I don’t want things to get spoiled by having sex with him every time.

How should I handle this?

Booty In Maine A: Are you trying to fool me, or just yourself? Or, play two sides by fooling your boyfriend, too?

You’ve expressed no remorse/ regrets about cheating on him; just upset at thinking you were used.

You’re also fudging your desire to see Booty Man again as seeking “friendship.”

Ask Ellie

Get honest with yourself. You know he’ll just want another quick hit, and you’re risking a long relationship to go that route again.

The sleaze shows on both sides, unless you: 1) use this as a sign that you don’t want to be with your boyfriend any longer and break off cleanly; or 2) then accept being a booty call, as a single woman who clearly is still attracted to this guy.

Q: My common-law partner of five years and I are both 50. He owns the house, pays the mortgage and bills.

I pay for groceries for us and his teenage daughter, and the heating bill (about half what he pays).

I feel that’s a fair share since only his name is on the property.

He feels I should pay more per month (though my income’s significantly lower) and that it’s a privilege to live here. But he’d be paying all his bills if I weren’t here.

What’s Fair?

A: If common-law rules in your jurisdiction allow you a share of the house or support if you split, that’s a financial factor to consider.

Talk to a financial advisor once you know the legal facts.

But FIRST, look closer at the relationship. His money grab appears petty, since he earns much more.

More worrisome is his “privilege” comment… you’re either both lucky to be together, or not.

Q: I’ve only known my boyfriend for two months and we started dating almost a month ago.

He has all the qualities that I appreciate in a partner, however I’m slightly put off by his extreme religious views. I explained to him pre-

viously (before we dated) that I’m spiritual rather than religious.

He’s grown up in a strict religious household and has decided to return to his faith. Although I have no problems with his religious views, I feel as if I’m getting pressured to convert to his faith.

He’s decided to implement “rules” of being his girlfriend, which includes some unrealistic expectations of me.

Although we talk about this all the time, and he continuously tells me there’s no pressure, I feel it’s becoming too overwhelming.

I also realize that we got into a relationship quickly before truly getting to know one another.

He’s an amazing person, but I’m afraid that his extreme religious views would affect our relationship.

I’m starting to doubt the longevity of our being together, and wonder if I should just end things before it gets too serious.

Steamrollered A: Reality check: You ARE being

pressured to convert. This will continue until you agree to do so.

The “rules” will get stricter, because you’re dealing with extremist views.

(Note: I do not know which faith he follows, but “extremism” in any faith calls for strict adherence, and often involves constant checks and monitoring of the outsider’s compliance, to assure that you’re not straying.)

Unless you had voluntarily decided to embrace his faith, it IS overwhelming and will consume much of the relationship.

End this quickly. The longer you leave it, the more hurt and offended he’ll be, because he’ll feel you’re rejecting his faith, not just him.

Be diplomatic but firm. Say that you didn’t know each other long, or well, and you realize he needs a true partner in his faith, which you can never be.

If he persists, cut off contact. This was a rush relationship and you need to cool its intensity.

DINNER FOR ONE

Zucchini Eggplant Lasagna is a healthy alternative

By Jenn Sharp I’ve embarked on an eight-week nutrition challenge with a group of boot camp friends. Like all challenges worth doing, it’s easier said than done.

In this one, we eliminate basically everything (sugar, dairy, wheat, legumes, starchy vegetables, high sugar fruits) for two weeks, then add in a new food group each week. We all keep track of our energy and weight levels, along with how our body reacts — both to the two-week detox and to the new foods. It’s amazing what your body will tell you if you listen to it.

The problem, for me at least, has been finding “challenge friendly” dinners that also hit the comfort food craving that inevitably arrives with fall. Hence, my take on the classic pasta and cheese lasagna dish. This version was adapted from my boot camp instructor Regan Courtney’s recipe.

I don’t measure a whole lot when I cook. I like to throw in whatever feels or looks right and taste as I go. I’ve tried to give accurate quantities for the ingredients but if you’re unsure, add a little more or a little less to suit your own taste.

I, like many others, also have the challenge of cooking for one. In a past column, I spoke about dining out alone (which I love and do often) but this time, it’s devoted solely to cooking for one.

This recipe makes a big pan of lasagna, but that’s good. Now you have leftovers and you can freeze individual portions for quick lunches or dinners. Plus, if you had a surplus of zucchini or tomatoes in your garden, this recipe is a great way to use them up.

This dish is packed full of vegetables — it can get runny once cooked but the zucchini and eggplant give it a nice, dense texture. Let it stand for at least 15 minutes after you take it out of the oven. Soft cheeses are allowed on our nutrition challenge so I topped my lasagna with goat cheese crumbles — you can do as you please and use grated Mozzarella or Parmesan.

The prep time on this is about 30 minutes, then it needs to bake for almost an hour so it’s definitely not something to whip up after work when you’re starving. However, I find cooking to be very therapeutic — a nice way to unwind after a long day. So when you have the time and the energy, it’s definitely worth the effort.

Are you cooking for one? What are some of your favourite recipes? I’d love to hear them. jksharp@thestarphoenix.com/Twitter @JennKSharp

Zucchini Eggplant Lasagna > 500 grams ground chicken or turkey (you can also use extra lean ground beef) > 1 tbsp. Three Farmers Camelina Oil or olive oil > 2 medium zucchini > 1 medium eggplant (I like the long, thin variety because you can cut smaller slices) > 1 large white onion > 1 green pepper > 2 cups mushrooms > 2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced (garlic powder works too). Set aside half. > 1 can tomato paste (156 ml) > 1 jar tomato sauce (I like PC Blue Menu’s tomato and basil sauce — if you have any ripe garden tomatoes left, chop them up and add them in as well) > 1 to 3 tbsp. fresh or dried basil, thyme, dill, oregano (whatever you like and/or have on hand) > 2 tbsp. fresh ground pepper > 1 tbsp. sea salt > 1 tub (500 gram) low-fat Ricotta cheese

> 2 eggs > 1/4 cup goat cheese > Grated Parmesan or Mozzarella cheese

METHOD: 1. Preheat oven to 350 C. 2. Cut zucchini and eggplant into thin slices, set aside. Finely chop onion, green pepper and mushrooms.

3. Add onion and half the garlic to a frying pan heated on medium with Camelina or olive oil.

Heat until onions begin to brown slightly, then add green peppers and mushrooms. (You can also steam the green peppers and mushrooms in a sauce pan with 1/4 cup of water while the onion cooks, then add it all together). Remove vegetables from pan and set aside, covered.

4. Add meat to pan with the garlic you set aside. Cook until heated evenly through and no pink remains. Don’t overcook. Add vegetables, along with herbs, pepper and salt. Mix thoroughly.

5. Move entire mixture to a Dutch oven or soup pot and keep at low heat. Add tomato paste, tomato sauce and fresh tomatoes. Mix throughly and allow to simmer while you prepare the cheese.

6. Stir jar of Ricotta with two eggs in a mixing bowl. Grate the cheese you’ll be using for the top or have your goat cheese ready. I find it works best if I set up an assembly line for the lasagna layers. Have your pot of chicken and veg beside the pan and the bowl of cheese on the other side with a soup ladle and spatula nearby.

7. The chicken/veg mixture is your first layer in the pan. Follow that with a thin coating of the Ricotta cheese, then layer the eggplant and zucchini to cover the cheese mixture (this is your noodle layer). Repeat. Top it all off with your cheese of choice.

8. Bake covered, for 30 minutes. Remove tin foil and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before you dive in.

Enjoy!

R o b e r t m o n d av i

Let’s stop all the hating with a Riesling for all ages

27

Hold on

TO SUMMER

By James Romanow Riesling is one of those wines that gets no respect. No one, barring women over the age of 60, is allowed to drink it without comment. And even then, it’s likely somebody will make a face behind her back.

To remedy this egregious error, some vintners in hot countries like California and Australia have taken to harvesting their Riesling a little less ripe than Zin fans like. The resulting wine tends toward a citrus profile that is sufficiently dry for most modern fans and satisfies Riesling addicts, at least a little bit.

My only beef with this plan is that the above mentioned countries are rather addicted to wines that cost more than Germany charges for the stuff. Some of this is supply and demand — benighted homies who don’t know any better etc. — but at least a part of it is fashion. At some point, probably sooner than I can imagine, the tide will turn again.

In any event, Robert Mondavi, a bellwether producer, acquired some property on the Central Coast that is being dedicated to cool climate grapes. They have a relatively inexpensive Riesling here in the style beloved by fashionistas. I don’t mind the style, although I prefer the more traditional flavours out of Germany, the Alsace and Canada.

The bouquet is a bit floral, and the palate quite tart with good citrus flavours and a touch of more exotic fruits that make me wonder if they oaked 10 per cent of the crop and blended it in. Regardless of the vinification, this is a nice crisp wine that will appeal to any number of people well under the age of 60.

Robert Mondavi Private Selection Riesling, USA, 2011. $16 **** More wine in Monday’s paper and on Twitter @drbooze.
