The Affordable Art Fair 2

Continue from the report #1… The great thing about this Art Fair was that you could buy it if you wanted to. Anything that was displayed. All priced from $100 – $10,000. Only if I were really rich… oh wait, if I were rich, I would have bought way too many things so good thing I’m not rich. Oh wait, if I were rich, I guess that doesn’t matter, either… hmm… anyways…

Beautiful cut out art.

Silver or Gold?

Are you more like a silver gal/guy or a gold gal/guy? I think I always liked silver better, but nowadays, I love gold things, too…. well, don’t we all love the metallic shiny things?! :) That is why I printed these cake note cards in silver and gold! They can be used for birthday, any wedding related things, very simple and gorgeous, so happy to announce that they are in my shop now.

I never worked with metallic ink before so this was so cool!

The Affordable Art Fair 1

I was so lucky to get to go the the Affordable Art Fair private preview night last week (Thank you, Tomoko!! She designed posters and collateral pieces for the show!) and what I saw was truly amazing art work from all over the world. A huge floor was divided by lots of little sections and it was filled with so many arts, everywhere I looked, I saw something fresh, every turn I made, I saw something amazing. Every single piece had its own style, very distinct style, I felt lots of energy and got lots of inspirations.

Here is the first batch of pictures that caught my eye from the night, I will let them speak to you… Enjoy!
