colouring book beginnings

so i'm making a colouring book. 'colouring-in under vancouver viaducts' is the working title. here is a sneak preview of one of the progress images - there will be 9 images in total:

...and i was going through some stuff the other day and found these images, which are from almost a year ago!

floor update!

Today was a beautiful day. I went for a bike ride and decided on my way to check out how my floor is doing. Turns out it is doing well! - enjoying some sunny rays.

Some joggers passed through while I was there.

Some time in the last week or so someone has decided to add their own paste-ups to one of the side walls. I like how they are random and organic and kind of weird.

more floor pics

Thanks so much to unurth for posting photos of my floor project on his blog over the weekend!

pennies volume idea

This is an idea for a volume of space under the N side of Burrard Bridge to be lined with pennies, one every square inch. The space would become a shimmering look-out over the mouth of False Creek.

new floor under Burrard Bridge

we finished the floor on Saturday morning, but it took a while before the sun came out again and we could get a decent photo. this was taken yesterday around 7pm.
