Markets and Events June to November

This is part 2 of my big blog update!

July 2nd I helped prime the back of the NDCC for Mural Fest! We did have to end early as it started to rain quite heavily.

July 5th – 7th I attended StarBelly Jam Music Festival! This was made possible by Apollo Suns, the very kindly gave me a weekend pass and as a BIG thank you I mustered all my “people drawing skills” and drew each of the band members! Look them up on Spotify, I highly suggest seeing them live.

I also volunteered at Kaslo Jazz Festival but that wasn’t really anything related to my art endevours.

August 28th – September 3rd my Dad and I went to a VW van meet up in Oregon, USA called Descend 10. There was a makers market during the event so I took some items with me along with specifically designing 4 Van stickers , cards and colouring pages. Those items have since been uploaded to my website!

September 21st and 22nd Isaiah and I vended at the Passcreek Fall Fair! There was over 30 vendors, bunnies, turkeys, lawn mower races, fair rides, food and music! The only thing it really lacked was a stable wifi connection as many of us had to resort to cash only.

September 28th my friend and I were at the Saturday cottonwood falls farmers market! My friend 3D prints fidget toys. It was such a beautiful and sunny day! (October 5th was my last Nelson Farmers Market for the 2024 season).

October 11th on our way to Nakusp hot springs for Thanksgiving we stopped at the Silverton, BC General Store to restock a few items! https://silvertongeneralstore.ca/

October 17th – 20th I vended at Linden Lanes Pumpkin Fest! It was super cold and quite wet but I bought a brand new tent from one of my neighbours and made friends with the cows and ate many many crepes!

October 25th Isaiah and I drove to Nakusp after he was done work to be ready the next day to participate at the Basin Summit Mushroom Festival / Expo ! This event was really really fun, I made a few new connections and overall it was quite enjoyable! I also made “fungi flavoured” mystery bags with my art and Spellbound Crafts stickers! https://www.instagram.com/_spellboundcrafts_?igsh=Ymw4ZWttdzR3YTV4

October 27th Isaiah and I were at Tarry’s Hall (between Castlegar and Glade) for a Halloween Market!

October 29th a sighting of my book in the window of Urban Legends on Baker st in Nelson! Photo credits to my friend!

November 9th at Tarry’s Hall for a 1/2 days Christmas Market and Borscht Sale! About 30 vendors in a 2 story hall, there was lots of foot traffic and many stickers being purchased! I did 2 trades with Forage and Soothe! https://www.instagram.com/forageandsoothe?igsh=MTI1Njc1emxjaXZ3eQ==

Markets and events from April to June

This is a MAJOR market catch up post!

April 13th I vended / attended ECLIPTIC a rave in Salmo that my friend put on! There was a few vendors including myself and I raffled off one of the whales from the lantern festival! The whale was safely transferred to its new home and is hanging from the ceiling seen in the last image!

April 20th I vended at a 420 themed market in Ymir! It was super fun, warm and there was soooo many doggo friends! Sadly the stickers I had designed for 420 didn’t arrive on time but otherwise it was great fun!

May 11th was the Mothers Day Market and the start of the Nelson Farmers Market Season! It was hella hot out and half way through I had to stop eating and drinking because later that day I got my wisdom teeth removed.

May 26th was the Spring Fling at Mount Sentinel School. It was exceptionally slow and we were in the gym. I did make the woodcarver that was beside me quite happy with my art and he gave me some wood rounds to draw on.

June 5th I was on Baker st for the Wednesday Market and on June 16th I was at the Saturday market! At the Saturday market these two absolute legends bought FOUR Mountain Dummy Thicc Lg stickers!

June 22nd Isaiah and I drove to Slocan Park for a very nice market and I would like to return next summer! There was music, sun and some very tasty treats, definitely worth the drive!

June 29th I participated in Artwalk for the second year! I had 8 pieces in very nice wooden frames that my Papa made! My location was on Houston st at a nice ladies Pottery studio called Ovo. This year’s theme was outlines of animals and inside local locations. Like Bear Cubs / Trout Lake , Coyote / S.S. Moyie and Frog / Fletcher Falls. All have sold except the Elk / Idaho Peak and Canadian Goose / Lakeside Park , they are $120.00 and if you’re interested please use the contact page to inquire.

🌈Pride Stickers 2024 🌈

The Pride stickers arrived and somehow I ordered the wrong size … again. I will not be ordering full size ones unless these ones sell out as I simply can’t afford that.

This year I made 4 new Pride Mushling ! We have Aroace, Lesbian, Pansexual and Genderfluid. Each one has its own little saying personalized to its Pride Flag. All of these are Dishwasher safe and weather resistant.

November Catch Up

It was certainly a busy month so lets go through the highlights!

On November 9th my bear magnets and stickers came in! The Milky Way Bear magnet turned out a lot smaller than I expected but the design is still beautiful and the Grizzly Family sticker looks awesome!

On November 11th Honey Suckle Crafts https://www.instagram.com/honeysuckle_craftss?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== and I collaborated for a giveaway that ended on December 1st. Everything in the giveaway was a valued at $130.00 !
Items that are included:
Original watercolour painting
Western Pasque Bookmark
5 assorted stickers
Crochet Chicken
Crochet Mushroom pop
Leaf earrings

In preparation of upcoming markets I took paper bags I had loose in my house and drew fun designs on them to be reused! I then forgot them at home…. But that just means I am extra prepared for my future markets.

On November 15th I completed a Commission! It’s a mix of Pokémon/ Magic the Gathering/ Naruto.

On November 16th my mom and I finally got around to taking nice pictures of my Seasons Greetings Cards!

November 19th I vended at the Royals Sunday Market https://www.theroyalnelson.com/events . This market I was up on the stage and I had enough space to have two tables set up and my easel! My boyfriend and friend helped me out and overall it was really fun!

November 21st I dropped by the Coop to leave some of my Milky Way Bears and Grizzly Family cards with The Ursa Project Society. They had a table set up as an info booth and to sell calendars, bags , cards and stickers.

On November 22nd I dropped off some books, cards, bookmarks, and stickers to https://www.asterandbliss.com/ on Consignment.

November 27th I sent some fan mail out! I found a really cool band called Lo & the High Road https://www.instagram.com/loandthehighroad?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== they have a song about Jackalopes so I messaged them and asked if I could send a Jackalope sticker!

My Artwalk opening night experience!

The Artwalk location I have my artwork at is Booksmyth in Nelson BC. I shared the location with Kimberley Hyatt, https://instagram.com/hyattkimberley?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== .

My artwork is displayed amongst the books and on the sides of bookshelves. Along with some stickers and bookmarks I was selling as well

Opening night was super busy and I only ended up getting one photo (see below image, I am posing with a piece that sold). It was really exciting to explain my art process and inspirations but I definitely did not expect to see so many people come out! So a big Thank You to everyone that came out and supported Artwalk 2023! ❤️
