Let's play weekend catch-up...

Friday - Meeting up with an online Creative 'Glitter Power Sister':

Violette, Giggles and I met one of our GPS 'Sioux' from Texas, who was in Vancouver for one night.

We had a great time chatting and sharing stories, etc.

Our gathering also included Violette's "G", Sioux's "Raf", Giggles' "Pepper & Bryan". Unfortunately my photos of them turned out quit blurred.

Saturday - A visit to the annual Cloverdale Blueberry Car Jamboree and my wall mural.
I took so many pictures of the wonderful older cars. There curves are what do it for me I think. They are more like pieces of art compared to our straight line (rather boring) vehicles of today.
I know I would make many car enthusiasts cringe when I say this, ... but ... Oh!, I would love to paint one with 'My Girlz', flowers, checkers, etc. Oh to dream...

Can you see the dot, which is my son standing next to the monster truck? He is half the height of the back wheel. Yikes!

Mural: We had some friends over for dinner last night.
After dessert they said they would like to drive down and take a look at the mural I participated in. We arrived down there at a quarter to 9pm, only to find Alicia packing up after another day of painting. Alicia and Joanna have spent many hours this week fine tuning our mural, as it ended up we definitely needed more time than what was anticipated. The wall is 23 feet wide by 8 feet high.
It looks even more fabulous than when I packed up my paints last Monday. Great job Ladies! (I was with you working in spirit since I could not be there physically these last few days.)

Sunday - A day of supply shopping and painting:
Today I plan to head out and purchase some pieces I need to begin working on my latest commission pieces.. and then it's time to PAINT, Baby!

I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!
Keep smiling and creating
Nicci
