Shoes, UFO paintings, latte, and city farmers

Was checking out vintage stores and galleries, after hours, I walked around the suburb and found an organic garden @ kits, called city farmers.
I hard they're teaching about organic gardens.

Nice pair of vintage Italian shoes with surprising price!

@ equinox gallery, love the UFO paintings and Fire work factory paintings.

I was wondering what's there.

Cool prints @ Le centre

I went Le Centre, French cultural centre in Vancouver.

There is an exhibition "Babyloprint" by Chantal Poirier, she does interesting prints.

Love the idea of her flames too.

Chantal and Charles

It was an opening night, there're variety of French cheese and wine.

One of the cheese made me stinky breath but it was so tasty.

Mini hat show

My mini hat show has been extended again.
It supposed to be until the end of Dec, it will be until early week of Feb-
I displayed new hats few days ago.

 Thanks @ a french style cafe, coco et olive on Main.

After the storm

Yesterday's weather was like a storm came to our town..

After the storm, I saw a rainbow and sun came up in the late afternoon.

I walked down to a park then I saw many colours of leaves flying with cold wind. 

The lighting was amazingly gold, the scene was like a dream. 

Btw..I'll have a mini-hat show at a French style cafe called "coco et olive" on Main street.

Halloween spirit

Today I walked down the street and looked at Halloween houses.

I felt the Halloween spirits when the cold wind blew.

Mystically beautiful skeletons

Risa Salsberg's art works

Risa Salsberg, is  Vancouver based mixed media artist.

I saw her works and greeting cards at Robson square market.

I bought one of her cards, her illustrations are minimum and unique, 

the simple lines remind me Japanese style illustrations.

According to her website, she has studied with the Buddhist nuns in a Zen temple in Tokyo.

From her website,  "Drift" series.

You can see more her cards on her etsy store also.

Craft market tour

This month is local craft market tour month.
I'll do lots of markets,
last week I was at "Fab fair"on Main street Vancouver,
it is 7year's running show.The vendors were fantastic!

This coming weekend(11,12 June),
I'll be at"Robson Square artisan market".
This is my first time to join in them, they will continue through the summer until September.
It locates in the heart of Down Town,
not only for local shoppers, it will be a great tourist spot,  people can find special souvenirs made by local artists.
They also have performers and musicians.

On Sunday 19th,
I'll be Fort Langley in Vancouver.
It called Bloom market.
This is my first time to participate this show ether, their "designer spotlight" article on their website is fun to look at.
