Switching Interests

I am not sure if anyone else is feeling the same way as me, but I have lost interest in Pinterest.  It may be the fact that I have been far too busy to even open my computer (hence why I haven’t posted in awhile).  But I think the main reason is because I have recently discovered Instagram! I know it has been around for quite some time, but for us Android users, it has only been a couple of months.  The creative, one of a kind photos that people post draws my attention far more than searching through dozens of repined pictures of internet memes, 10 minute exercise routines and “Keep Calm” posters.

Art World Expo

{beautiful pieces by Jenny V Designs}

I was given the exciting opportunity, (thanks to my new job that has been so good to me so far!) to attend the Art World Expo at Telus Science World.  A few weeks back, my boyfriend and I filled our brains with fun scientific facts, competed in wheelchair races and built castles out of Lego while at Science World, but Friday night was a completely different experience.  The place was jam packed with over 80 artists showing and selling their brilliant and unique designs, and if that isn’t enough for you there was a fashion show (put on by my wonderful work!), a body painting competition and a live performance from Bif Naked.  I had a great time connecting and networking with all the wonderful people!  Here are a few of my favourite pieces from the night.
