One-of-a-Kind Show Toronto

Had a fabulous time yesterday in Toronto at the One-of-a-Kind Show with my good friend Trisha.
So many artists with really innovative work! I especially enjoyed the work of Alison Terp, Michele Rose, Rudy Kehkla and Sharon Nowlan along with many others. I came back with a great deal of inspiration and lots of ideas for my own artwork.

Lovely Day!

We went for a wonderful drive to Prince Edward County today and stopped in Bloomfield at the fabulous FAD Gallery. Beautiful, functional art, fine art and loads of gorgeous jewellery is what this place is all about! I especially liked the encaustic work by  Tanya Kirouac. Breathtaking, actually. Michael was  a great help!

Definitely stop by if you are in the neighbourhood or need a gift for a special person. So much to choose from and all one-of-a-kind!

Textile Shop

Not quite finished our vacation but wanted to pass on a link to the most fabulous shop on Granville Island in Vancouver, BC.
It is a textile shop called MAIWA that carries an amazing assortment of textile products, including paints, resists, yarns and the best wood block carvings that could also be used with polymer clay or a thousand other materials.
Thanks to my most wonderful husband, who followed me patiently as I explored every nook and cranny of Granville Island for hours!
What a guy!!
