Our big plans for Canada's birthday include working, then hanging out with friends & more than likely drinking a few beers while we watch the fireworks late tonight. Holidays that fall in the middle of the week are always kind of odd & the mister is working a full day, but between my sister's birthday… Continue reading Happy Canada Day!
The crew from Novus came out to cover the opening of our group show a few weeks ago & I did my first ever TV interview. Yikes! I think we all did a really good job (& of course, the Novus folks did some fabulous editing), but it's still mortifying to watch myself. Is my… Continue reading KGB on TV

I hate reading blog posts where the blogger apologizes for not posting much lately & don't want to start this one off by doing just that because, well...yawn. Snooze fest. Nobody wants to read about how busy you are unless you're actually posting interesting links and photos about what's been keeping you so busy. And… Continue reading Ahhhh Summer
Now that the birthday girl has already received it, I can share the little package I put together for my grandma's big day on Monday. Her favorite baseball team (& bird) are the Blue Jays, so I doodled an illustration for her and then added a splash of color with very watered down acrylic paints.… Continue reading Birthday Blue Jays

Tonight is the big opening night of my group show at Raw Canvas. I'm excited and a little nervous because there were a few things I should've done to prep for the event that I didn't get a chance to do. Nothing major, but would've been nice to have gotten my hair cut, done something… Continue reading Tonight’s the Night
