A Frank Discussion

To little girls everywhere* god lived in a purple castle on a rainbow cloud surrounded by a menagerie of rainbow animals and was known as 'Lisa Frank'.

*OK maybe not little girls everywhere maybe just one little girl named Danielle

Birthday Fast

I went to check out Toronto's art festival Luminato on June 20th. It was nice little pre-birthday treat that I have been meaning to post about. It was the last day of the festival so I just ran around town snapping pictures of the Mark Fast installation (an interpretation of the Lancome rose) and the delightful Wish Come True inflatables. I'm a big collector of vinyl art toys and Wish Come True is one of my all time favourites.
