I like spending time with the blooms that only come once a year, with the smell of them, the sound of bees, hot hard cement and curled back urging me to hurry, hurry. Here they are, soon they'll be gone. Like you and me. But here they are! Now, now, now.
I faced the smoke to do my first #pleinair#oilpainting - the air wasn't as "plain" as I'd have liked ๐ but I had this in mind for months and couldn't miss my chance with my backyard tree ๐ธ๐ฎ๐
I'm tabling at #vancaf for the FIRST time! I'll be at B10-2 and I would love love love to see some familiar faces AND meet a gazillion new people too!!
Happy Mother's Day to @candaceallan & all the other lovely mums! I'm lucky to have the support of this passionate, creative soul! If anyone out there needs a gift we both have great books for you! Check out my mom's blog too!

@HEATcomic It probably helped that she was dressed like the grim reaper. I told her she could say No if people asked to take her picture. Twelve people asked and she said no to all of them. Ha ha.
@HEATcomic Alice helped me on the last day and I let her get a poutine by herself...kind of felt like I might be watching her walk away FOREVER. If you're scared to let a 12 year old wade out on their own, you might be in shark infested waters.
Hi #SAIT#AuARTS and #Jubilee ! I can see how between three institutions the shared parking lots might seem like "not your problem" but the machines in the lower lot are barely working. It puts a damper on a fun event when you get trapped in the lot for an hour afterwards.
Thanks to all the organizers, exhibitors and everyone who came out and faced the crowds for an amazing #CalgaryExpo2023 ! I had fun time tabling yesterday with this goofy grim reaper for the very first time!
Do you miss the #ExpoArtbook that #CalgaryExpo used to do? Think about replacing it with #AlbertaComicsHOME - 47 short comics stories by 63 different contributors, all with a personal connection to the Alberta community. You can collect signatures from all the tabling exhibitors!
Here's the veiw from my table last year at #CalgaryExpo in my signature style where I combine it with the next thing I drew, my cherry tree in bloom ๐
