2015 Whyte Avenue Art Walk Wrap-Up

So it’s been over a week since the end of the 2015 Whyte Avenue Art Walk, and I think I might finally have recovered from the whirlwind weekend.

And what a great weekend it was! Despite the heat and the smoke there were lots of visitors. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and bought a necklace or some cards. A big thank you to those who stopped just to say how much they loved my work! It was so great to see so many of you, both old and new friends. I sold so many greeting cards I had to restock! Many of you asked who makes my cards/business cards/stickers. I get them all at Moo.com.

Speaking of business cards, I handed many of them out with the reminder that “Yes, I do commissions!” and I hope to hear from some of you soon. I am also excited about the potential opportunity to collaborate with a local clothing company, Hot Dame. Check out their website at www.shophotdame.ca.

I made wonderful progress on some paintings thanks to the heat drying my paint layers so quickly and I hope to have some new work on the website soon.

It was so nice to see some Twitter friends in person. I know I’ll miss some if I try to name them all, so I apologize if I miss you (comment, and I’ll add you in!). I met Dave with Bleeding Heart Art Space (and his kids), Jay (check out the mural he’s painting!), Kevin (glad you had a great first Art Walk!), Marie (thanks for the photo!), and the genius behind the @OldStrathcona twitter feed (so sorry I can’t remember your name!). I was so busy I missed being able to visit other Twitter friends like Crystal and Cryssie and others.

Up next for me: Putting some finishing touches for some gallery proposals for the upcoming year(s), and getting ready for the next art walk event: The Strathearn Art Walk, September 12th. Hope to see you there!
