yesterday could not have been better
all thanks to a fearless leader, an incredible team of volunteers, talented artists, sunshine and my most favourite community
a few highlights i was able to catch during my awesome busy day…

my kiddies collaboARTing with Daniel Martelock

the finished work

burlesque feather lady was enchanting!

mesmerizing live projection art by Stefan Thompson

i thought the days of print were behind us, sadly
that is until i ran across ottawa’s latest arts and culture rag herdmag

it goes after my heart with its charming small almost-square size and quirky sensibility
i don’t know who is paying for this beautiful little magazine but i look forward to cutting it up for as long as it is around. i will even likely read it first!
i leave you with… the alien and the mystery machine
