Oh No She Didn't?!

It was a wonderful surprise to discover that Carlos and Rochelle sold one of my drawings while I was away and that I was able to trade my credit in for Helmut Newton, Sumo. Those two are the best - thank you x10000! Don't you love it when stuff like that happens?!

The Great Lloyd Bregman

 I always love visiting Lloyd in his gallery house for a glass of frozen berries and vodka. Lloyd is one of Toronto's biggest art dealers and often loans his pieces to the major galleries across the world. He even has books and DVDs in his kitchen cabinets! x

YSL Jardin Majorelle Paint


Shit. I knew I should have bought more than one can of paint at YSL Jardin Majorelle. My side tables are looking good but they could do with one (or two) more layers. Anyone heading to Marrakesh soon?

CHILDhood Memories

Dreaming of when I was younger. I spent my childhood here. Four Seasons Hotel, Inn on the Park. Miss you Papa.

  • The first Four Seasons hotel opened on the first day of spring in 1961 on an unlikely downtown site in Toronto, Canada.  “We opened our first hotel with a simple principle: treating every customer as a special guest.” Issy Sharp was both the developer and the builder of the hotel, with his original partners, Murray Koffler, Max Sharp, Eddie Creed and Fred Eisen.
