It occurred to me as I was setting up for the One Of A Kind Show in Vancouver, which ran from Oct 8 – 11, that I now know and have an amazing community of artisans and designers as friends. The show experience is one of intensity on numerous levels; intense output of energy, long hours, show outcome anxiety, joyful highs as positive feedback and sales rock, funny and tragic experiences of life on the road, fun nights out, exhausted mumbles as we pass each other in the washroom. All of these shared experiences of highs and lows create strong bonds that require little to maintain beyond the hugs when we see each other again. What a delight to see many of these folk again, to reconnect even briefly knowing that the Christmas season is just around the corner and we will see each other on the road. I give appreciation for all these inspiring creative folk and thus will devote some of the following blog segments to highlight them.
