October 2023 - Update

  • QR code Sign

  • New Monochrome Series/Exhibition

  • First Saturday - October 7

  • Feeling Crafty?! - Workshops

  • Fall/Holiday Schedule


The past month has been another busy one, so here’s a quick recap:

I vended at Car Free Day for the first time and had such an amazing time!

I made a new cross-stitched QR code sign (photos below).

I spent lots of time focusing on holiday production (stay tuned for Xmas cards and ornaments).

My new monochrome series is currently being shown at First Saturday Group Exhibition.

I finished writing a collaborative project proposal to the Canada Council for the Arts for a grant in 2024.

New Monochrome Series

Last Friday was the opening reception for the Monochrome group show at 1000 Parker St studios in East Vancouver, the first member’s exhibition curated by First Saturday. It was a very busy opening with lots of support for the exhibiting artists! Of course, my friend Hayley and I dressed monochromatically accordingly.

The show will run until Thanksgiving, so this weekend is your last chance to see all the works in person. Unsold works will return to my studio and be available for sale shortly there after.

Please email me directly if you’re interested in any of the works from my cross-stitch Monochrome Series.

I’m still recovering from the whirl wind that was Vancouver Mural Festival! Thanks again to everyone that stopped by my studio and supported my art. Since then I’ve been working hard to prepare for a very busy Fall season. Starting with a new Monochrome series, installing retail space at Pacific Art Market and planning for several fall workshops. Read on to find out more!


New Monochrome Series

A few weeks ago I made this new monochrome series for an upcoming group show at 1000 Parker St studios in East Vancouver as part of a member’s First Saturday exhibition. Stay tuned for opening reception details in a few weeks! Until then, here’s an exclusive first look at this new cross-stitch series.


Pacific Arts Market

After a long hiatus, I’m officially back at Pacific Arts Market with a retail wall display. I’ll be selling my work at this retail art location near W Broadway & Granville (1448 W Broadway) till the end of the year. Here you’ll find a selection of my framed art, prints, greeting cards, buttons and stickers. There are over 60 local artists and small businesses in this space, so the next time you’re in the area please check it out and support local.
