Tromping around in the Vancouver rain...Vancouver ETSY Gathering: Yesterday myself and a few fellow ETSY Sellers/Buyers met at a Vancouver coffee shop on Main Street called 'The Grind'. We shared some great stories involving selling/buying work online and the people you meet there. Please feel free to check out their funky shops (CindyG, WhiteRabbit21, GroovyGlassGirl, Tattered Slippers, Its Your Life, and a few others whose cards I did not get)
Portobello West Market: After our little gathering 4 of us went to a little shop called the Urban Source (Urban Source invites value-conscious artists, teachers, and families to explore alternatives to conventional art materials.) followed by a trip to the monthly Vancouver market, Portobello West. Came across some very unique and fun vendors (Spark, Lace Embrace, Shi, Hug, Redfish Kids, and Gorgeous Baby).
Brand New to the Blogging World: (This is a wonderful email message I woke up to this morning. Please take the time to pop by her blog and check it out.) "Hi I love you art work and enjoyed watching your video on how to do it. My little girl she is 5 yrs sat in front of the computer with her pen and paper and replayed several times till she had a picture to colour. Takes after her mommy loves art but i think from what Im seeing will be way better. So thank you for a fun hour or so. I have a blog, just started it. Every further success with your art its truly wonderful and fun. Love it!"
Well, I had better go now. I have to wrap up a few packages for mailing today.
Keep smiling and creating!
