Today I checked out Word on the Street around the Vancouver Public Library’s central branch (aka downtown). It was a great event with lots of terrific information, cool authors, Olympic athletes, and artists.
My eye got caught in the web of Kristian Adam’s work as I was exploring the information overload at WOTS. His style definitely [...]

After going around and seeing some work of artists around Vancouver in the Eastside Culture Crawl, I thought I should take the time to recognize the work of some of the very talented individuals I know.
I would like to focus this entry on the work of a good friend, Arleigh, who has created some stunning [...]

This weekend is the 12th Annual Eastside Culture Crawl! I checked out four of the buildings last night with probably 150 or more artists’s studios in total.. it was insane! For those of you who were at SWARM, its a similar idea, but on way a bigger scale and you get to see the artists [...]

Okay, I just made the most exciting fruit discovery of the year! My favourite fruit (next to Guanabana) from when I was living in Colombia is called Granadilla and Urban Fare sells it! Mind you they just call it a Passion Fruit — which is a fruit I actually hate – because it is from [...]

Okay, I have finally decided I need to commit to going to the gym 3-4 times a week. Starting now. I went on Sunday, and then I went again today! So far, so good! I actually really enjoy going to the gym as long as I have a good mix of music to listen to [...]
