As promised I'm posting the creatures I created for the 21 day challenge...and I can hardly believe that It's been eight days since I've updated my blog with the challenge creatures! I paid for it in scanning time in the end. Now to be fair: Here's a little diddy about what I've been up to.
- Stop & Shop Fair: I set up my booth (new shiny display, prints and bookmarks, cards and twinkling lights ready to go...) only to be out-sold by the spectacular weather that Edmonton was given. Thank you so much to those of you who stopped by to visit and pick up a new card/print!
- Student Recruiting: My last day as a student recruiter for MacEwan College's Design program was last night during an information session... hello to those of you who picked up my new postcard!
- Self Promo: I have new postcards and business cards! Mail-out to come in the next couple weeks
- Museum: Only four more days and my contract ends at the Royal Alberta Museum. I've been hard at work promoting their upcoming Dragon exhibit as well as the soon to open Empress of Ireland story!
- Freelance: Oh internet! I wish I could tell you everything about the amazing projects I'm working on...
- Garbage Film Festival: I watched films all about trash. It was amazing! I was saddened, inspired and enlightened by the stories I witnessed. For example: Did you know that there is a Guatemalan garbage dump that houses 4,000 people (they live there, eat there, work there, raise their children there...)?
- Gardening: All Monday I was outside, digging in the dirt with my fingers planting herbs (over a dozen different ones), tomatoes (3 varieties), peppers (3 varieties), lettuce, spinach, potatoes (2 varieties), onions (2 varieties), kale, cucumbers, fennel, wild flowers, raspberries, strawberries, carrots.... I'm trembling with excitement because it's raining outside right now!





















And to those who could not make it to the event, thank you for the donation and/or long hours put into your pieces (Danielle Inglesias, Rachelle Miller & Michelle McBride)!
