it’s chalottage time again!!

If you are unaware of what a Chalottage is, you can find it in the Urban Dictionary defined by yours truly. I’m looking forward to a few trips out of the city in the new year to relax at the chalottage. Last winter we had a total blast heading up north and we had even more fun once we got there!
Chalottage
A place you go in the winter because it’s near a ski resort, ski hill or some type of winter activity AND a place you go in the summer because it is near water or for summer relaxing. part Chalet part Cottage, Chalottage.
Winter: Lets go to the Chalottage for skiing this weekend!
Summer: Lets go to the Chalottage and go to the beach this weekend!

Ex. Collingwood, ON: Ski at Blue Mountain & sun, sand, surf at Wasaga Beach.

The verb BELT OUT has 1 sense:

My office party was a smash hit.

borderline borderline borderline artistic

I was pondering about something to draw the other day when my artsy BF said ‘how about unnecessary wheels?‘. I found that to be a lovely idea and began the following series. There are four so far. I’m going for about 20. If you have an idea of something that does not NEED wheels, let me know. I’m always down for a challenge!!

another thing for spring

is coming

sketch pad

I got a new sketch pad about a week before holiday’s started and just about filled the whole thing. I’ve been drawing & painting with mixed materials: acrylic & water colour paint, pastel, charcoal, lead, pencil crayon, & wax crayon. It’s pretty exciting. I’ve always been an artsy one but NOW, the time has come. I’m going all borderline artistic and looking forward to some exciting stuff in 2009. My professional gallery, Borderline Contemporary will be opening in Spring 2009. I’ve got several artists lined up. I’m super excited. I’ve always wanted to have my own gallery and this year, my dreams shall come true!!
