Elisha Cuthbert to Show Her Art  4/17/06

24 star Elisha Cuthbert is painting up a storm in an effort to exhibit her art for the first time.

The Canadian actress usually gives her artwork away to friends but they've all urged her to build up a portfolio for a proper show.

She says, "This past New Year's I sort of made a resolution to myself that in my spare time I would work hard on putting enough together to showcase them - maybe at the end of the year.

"It's a hobby, and I love it. And hopefully one day everyone can see them and appreciate them as much as I do."
