This was an incredible evening, and I enjoyed it immensely! I got an early jump on the day, and went downtown early, so that I wouldn't be late, and wouldn't have any trouble, but I didn't quite plan everything, so I had to adapt a little.
When I got downtown, I was early for the event, but I was to late to eat at a lot of restaurants since they close after lunch, and don't reopen for dinner until 5 pm, which was the reception began. So, I decided to go get a burger at Thyme and Spice, a store and eatery close by. I was incredible and filled me up. I still has some time so I decided to go to my favorite coffee place, The Beancounter, and I got an affogato, which is espresso poured over ice cream or gelato.
After that, I went ot the exibit, and it was nice. The artists were a mother and daughter which was awesome! The mother was Kimberlee Rocca, who had these amazing sculptures that were so cool, and some were even hanging, like mobiles. She put together her art installments to suit the space, with other pieces people could put together.
Her daughter, Liona Rocca, was my favorite, just because of my own tastes. I love her drawings, her style was creative and animated. She creates characters based on people's descriptions of themselves and others, their likes and interests, and she makes them into princesses, princes or superheroes.
Before, I got to talk to each of them, and take pictures, and they were so friendly. They came with their family, and it was so cool. I got some sparkling water, and something to nibble on. Then each of them spoke about their art, and their styles and inspiration.
There was a lot to learn. After, I left a little early, so I got a cab, and went home. But I promise that won't be my last night out.
An awesome Blog-zine to share all kinds of interests, and adventures.
