Was tired of relaxing (is that possible?) and taking care of my aching back so decided to take the bus to Kits and visit the Bjornson Kajiwara gallery on West 3rd. I'm walking better than I was last week - not shuffling around like Frankenstein's monster like I was before. The crowd of villagers chasing me with pitchforks and torches was starting to become embarrassing.
I read about an exhibition by Amanda Church last weekend so thought I would check it out. Much of the exhibition was made up of paintings done on ceramic tile. Some looked like pages from a graphic novel, others like illustrations from books for disturbed children. She also had some very cool drawings that were collaged to give a very subtle 3d effect. I'm definitely going to have to visit galleries more often; there are so many talented artists and designers in Vancouver.
Anyway, it was nice to get out of my neighbourhood for the afternoon. I wandered down West 4th for a while, had a sandwich at Capers and watched the world go by.
