Look out Brazil, here I come! Just a few more days until my next adventure! #brazil #travelbrazil #wanderlust #adventure #exploremore #ilovetravelling #theurbangypsy
I’ve been doing a lot of playing lately. Here’s a little WANDERLUST for ya! #shoplocal #theurbangypsy #madeinedmonton #yegmade #mixedmedia #wanderlust
You say that I’m a dreamer. But I’m not the only one... #shoplocal #theurbangypsy #madeinedmonton #yegmade #mixedmedia #dreamer #underthesea
Creating more art! Here’s my latest 12x12 canvas. #shoplocal #theurbangypsy #madeinedmonton #yegmade #yegartist #theurbangypsy #mixedmedia
I have a little bit of a Frida Kahlo obsession lately. Here is my latest canvas that is up for sale. #shoplocal #yegmade #madeinedmonton #yegartist #mixedmedia #fridakahlo #fridaart #theurbangypsy
Yesterday a few of my friends took an art class. This one was alcohol inks on tile. After mounting the tiles on wood these are my 4 finished tiles. I love learning new techniques! #madeinedmonton #yegmade #shoplocal #yegartist #theurbangypsy #tileart
Happy Birthday to this little fire cracker! She is the best mom a girl could ask for and has been such an important, positive role model to Christine, Jennifer and I over the years. Her loving kindness truly touches everyone she meets! Love you Mom! ❤️❤️❤️
And a few more Malas to add to the collection... get yours before they are sent to the shops! #madeinedmonton #yegmade #malajewelery #shoplocal #theurbangypsy
I’ve been creating a few more Malas over the last few weeks. I have some really beautiful stones to work with! Any takers before I send them off to the stores? #yegmade #madeinedmonton #malajewelery #theurbangypsy #bycurated #etsymadeincanada #corrocollective #shoplocal
Today I went to Body Worlds -Animals. I find stuff like this so interesting. This is a shot of a giraffe’s heart and so fitting that the shape is really a heart. ❤️❤️❤️ #exploreedmonton #telusworldofscience #bodyworlds #yeggers #giraffe
I just want to thank everyone who supported The Urban Gypsy in 2018.
