It's not fair, you guys get to live in a cool city and I gotta live in stupid Rochester: - (

My tantrum is over. I'm just going to pout now.

I recognize Carrie's bridge shot!

Submitted my humble offerings to the online pool. Looking forward to catching some fellow blogTOers @ the shindig next Friday :)

Poo! I wish I would've known about this exhibit! Well, I've submitted one to the pool.

Hey Steve, a city is what you make of it, and we make Toronto cool.

This show was spread way too thin for the space and featured some a couple pieces of really weak (and terribly lit) work, very disappointed! Paled in comparison to work from others at less hyped openings.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there were plenty beholding. We appreciate and embrace your feedback (even though it's negative, anonymous, and redundantly copied and pasted in more than one place on the site).
