Show at Kafka’s in Vancouver

 

Aya and I will be having a  joint show at Kafka’s Coffee & Tea from September 16 until November 1, 2011.

Aya’s pieces are all sumi-e ink paintings from or based on the last Thirty Days Project. Mine are selected Thirty Days Project pieces with many new additions and some prints from my Kaiju collection.

If you can make it to the opening reception, Aya will be providing some of her amazing catering.

Originals and prints will be for sale. More announcements, and sneak peeks, to come.

Many thanks to our wonderful curator, Michael Schwartz, and Aaron and the staff  at Kafka’s. They make the most incredible caffe macchiati.
