However, if you can't make it out tomorrow night, we will be starting our first time as vendors at the Chinatown Night Market tonight - come and see all the awesome wares and fooooods! 

Possibility of tacos or cute indian cowboys at night market? Maybeee...you'll have to come and find out! (well they will definitely be in printed form!)

The Postcard Show Vol. II

Next weekend (June 7 + 8) I will be part of the Postcard Show Vol. II which is being held at Ayden Gallery in Chinatown. There will be tons of great, new and exciting work. All cards are unique creations by artists and up for silent auction so you could come away with some awesome original pieces (plus they're quite versatile - frame them or send them as a missive to a lover..or a hater)! There is a $5 admission fee to cover event costs - cheap for weekend outing and totally worth it!! (PLUS - I will also be manning the station at the Chinatown Night Market, so you can swing by and say hi and grab food post-show!)

A sneak peek of the cards I submitted:

Hope to see you there!

This weekend I will be setting up shop with fellow friend and artist Edward Juan of Forest & Waves at the new Chinatown Night Market in downtown Vancouver! I'm super excited to participate this year in the local community as a vendor and as 2nd generation!

We will be selling handcrafted pieces, artwork, cards, and prints at our table on Columbia and Keefer. Stop by to say hi! We'll be there 4 nights: May 31, June 1, 7, and 8.

Ed makes lovely maps of places he's lived and travelled. You could get yourself a nice shiny new layout of Vancity like the one below!

And you can come see some new and other stuff I will have for sale (sneak peak of those coming soon!)
