Ottawa Comiccon 2013

The cutest people at the convention were definitely these fuzzy characters!

I found a Hexadecimal!

I even found a second AndAIa!

Ottawa comiccon 2013 was a blast!

I decided to go with AndrAIa from reboot for my costume this year. The trident was tricky to make but I think it turned out quick well. I was lucky enough to find pants the right colour / pattern and modified shirt and boots I found at Value Village. The accessories (starfish hair pin, belt, necklace, arm fins, leg fins) were all constructed from various craft materials.
Seeing everyone dressed up was a blast. There were plenty of Batmans and Jokers, and I even managed to find a few other Reboot characters. The panels were great, I think my favorite was the Star Trek Improv (The Laugh of Kahn!). There were plenty of great vendors (I managed to find a fantastic digital art book) as well as lots of incredibly talented artists (including Petri Ratanen who makes stained glass sci-fi / comic-book characters).

Stay Fabulous!

Artwork: An older Piece

Here's a quick digital drawing I did earlier this year. It's based off a line drawing from a while back (shown at the top). Better late than never!

An Evening in Downtown Ottawa

 

The parliament buildings are gorgeous when they are all lit up during the winter holidays. The trees allover the downtown area are covered in multi-coloured strings of  lights. It's definitely worth the journey into the cold to see the lights. If you do get cold a visit to the Centennial Flame might help warm your hands.

Stay Fabulous!

Merry Holiday Day!

Or Give-people-you-like-fun-things-Day
Or Just another day of the winter Day.

Or 4-Days after Solstice Day.
Or Eat-all-of-the-hot-chocolate-and-pie Day

Or Christmas if that's what you prefer.

What ever it is you are celebrating this season, I hope it's lovely and filled with warmth!

Here's a picture of some fuzzy lights:

It was an accident, but it is kind of pretty, yes?

Hello All!

I hope you are enjoying the snow! If it is snowing where you are; here in Ottawa it is snowing non-stop. While I'm not a fan of the cold, I have to admit it's a nice change from the rain and ice. 
However, apparently the weather forecast is calling for a massive storm on Friday. Which is not so fun, especially since Friday is supposed to be the apocalypse or something like that. However if you do happen to survive the end of the world, I have some fantastic events for you to go to!

First off is the post-apocalypse rock show at BassLine Rocks: Pub and Eatery. I've recently been informed that "3MD" will also be joined by "The Missing Link". Then, on Boxing Day, 3MD and "The Arcanes" will be playing at the cozy blues bar: "The Rainbow Bistro." For more details check out the links under the posters.

It's going to be a lot of fun; if you are in the Ottawa area this December you should most definitely come and check it out!

What are your plans for the winter? Let me know in the comments!

Have a safe and happy Winter Solstice!
Stay Fabulous,
Tricia

Vintage Purses

This should e the last post on the Ottawa Vintage show that I make. There were so many amazing pieces at the show that I wish I could show you all of them.
I can't wait until next years show.

Hats and Fur Galore

Feathers everywhere! Feathered and furry hats were very popular.

A wall of vintage Chanel.

Beaded and sequin clothing were also very popular. I love the way they glittered.

Fox Fur. Gorgeous or creepy? I'll let you decide.

More vintage clothing after the break!

Jewels, Trinkets and Lace

The Vintage show was a lot of fun, there were plenty of lovely accessories and jewellery. More Photos to come!

Stay Fabulous,

Late Sunday Night

The Rainbow Bistro is a cozy blues bar that hosts many local bands.

The view from the Rainbow is quite pretty at night.

Some merch featuring my artwork for the band 3MD.

This past Sunday I went to the Rainbow Bistro and had a rockin' night listening to live music. The bands playing included Joey Langlois and 3MD.
More pictures of the show after the break.

Glebe Fine Art Show

Event: Tricia Flohr at the Glebe Fine Art Show!

This Post is loooong over due. A few weekends ago I volunteered at the Glebe Fine Art Show with a few other students- we helped advertise for the show and direct visitors. I've been volunteering with this annual show for the last few years, organizing volunteers and supervising the student art booth. We got to display some of our work. These are some of the works I showed, but I also had fascinators and jewelry for sale. I apologize for the low quality photos, I took them with my phone (which is rather old, I'm amazed it even has a camera!)
Hopefully I can participate in more local art shows in the future!

Stay Fabulous,
Tricia
