Wow! What a time we had at Splash, the kickoff for ARTember, celebrating two weeks of the arts in Airdrie. Balloons. Wine. Food. Bellydancers (yup, four of them). An auction. Good company. Great art. It don’t get much better than that.

About 30 artists were displaying and selling their work — paintings, watercolours, wood carvings, pottery, sculpture, stained glass. It’s inspiring to be around such talent.

The response to my jewelry was very positive. To date my shows have been in rural areas and small towns. This was my first venture into a city setting and it certainly exceeded my expectations. And so did my sales. Ain’t that fun! :-)
