Saturday was a beautiful day -- sunny and warm. Almost too hot with the humidity, but not one word of complaint slipped through my lips. We haven't had much heat or sunshine this summer so what we get is a gift.
One of my fellow Torontonian blogger friends and fellow etsians is having a showing at Arts on Queen in the Beach area of Toronto and I very much wanted to head down that way to say hello and see Rita Vindedzis's art up close and personal. Rita was attending the opening for the afternoon and it was an ideal opportunity to meet.
Rita's artwork as you can see in the background of these photographs is amazing. What you see "in the flesh" is more incredible than what you are able to perceive when viewing online.
It was a delight to meet Rita and if you are in the Toronto area during the month of August, why not pop down to Arts on Queen at 2198 Queen St. E. Toronto. Rita's work will be showcased until the 31st. If you aren't in Toronto but would like to see Rita's work, please check out her etsy shop, Red Banana.
