Hand made with silicon, this cellphone camera shot doesn't do it justice.

This guy was about 3' tall and looked so real you'd swear that he was going to walk out of the room any mintue to put some clothes on. Again, my cellphone camera fails to convey the detail.
I went to the East Side Culture Crawl yesterday and thought that it might be fun to share with you some of my experiences.
For those of you who have never heard of the Crawl, I suggest a perusal of the website (it's still on for one more day!) but here's the gist: Vancouver's East Side is home to a lot of really talented artists. Once a year, these people open their studio doors to the public so we can see what they've been doing, sometimes even take part in the creation of art ourselves. It's a family-friendly event and some of the stuff you see is just awesome -- in the literal sense of the word.
The highlights for me for the evening were Avatar and Kurve, both very talented designers, an honourable mention going to Grace Lee who had some really nice photography and some pretty jewelry that Melanie picked up.
The night was really quite exciting, despite running headlong into a mirror on the bus and cutting my head open... that part was no fun. Anyway, I took some pictures of the cool stuff from Avatar, so I'm including them here, but I encourage you to check out all three pages linked above as well as the site for the Crawl itself. Good fun ;-)
