Sunset in Toronto

While in Toronto I stayed with my very good friend Disa.  We went to Art school together and since that time (11 years ago now!!) she has moved to Toronto, back to Vancouver, and now to Toronto again last year.  So the first time I visited her, and my very first time in Toronto, she lived near Liberty Village in a beautiful condo just over the tracks from their place now.  They just moved into this new condo and I couldn't help thinking their summer is going to be great.  I loved the proximity to Queens Street West, along with the restaurants and shops near by.

I have a few new pieces available online along with some new work that I dropped off at the Gallery of BC Ceramics yesterday.  I'm taking the afternoons off this week so not a lot will happen in the studio until next week, when I will be back to filling wholesale orders.  It's been a really good break just to focus on the show, making new work and new designs, but I do need to get back to some regular work again. There's also a studio move in the works for me for mid-July, with a few renos needing to take place before I move in.  It's only up the hall from where I am now, but I'll finally, after 5 years of being in this space, have a window.  Yes, a small, little window. 

My view on a lovely day

With the menagerie of weather (snow, sleet, hail, rain, sun, clouds, wind, warm, cold- all in the same day!) we've been having in the 2 weeks, I thought I would post a very sunny, but cold Saturday in Vancouver 2 weeks ago.  It was stunning, with fresh snow on the mountains, a clear blue sky and the cold blue water.  It truly is a beautiful city that I live in and I'm more smitten with it the older I get. 
Hope your weekend is lovely!
