life drawing at ben navaee gallery

last night callum and i attended a free life drawing class at ben navaee gallery in leslieville. they offer an array of classes, ranging from yoga, guitar, sculpture, photography all the way to holistic exercises. each tuesday they offer a free life drawing class from 7 - 9pm, so grab your sketchbook, load up on pencils (+ eraser) and pop in next time you're in the neighbourhood.

vintage shopping in leslieville

gadabout

this past saturday i went shopping along the leslieville strip. the place is swarming with antique shops. i came across a fantastic record store called discovery used and collector records, and all the records were 50% off (my kind of deal). i didn't end up buying anything, but the posters they had on the wall were to die for (but unfortunately not 50% off). i then visited my FAVOURITE vintage store gadabout, i seem to make my way down there atleast once a week. just look at all the shoes! (all around $60-$80 dollars) they have a wide assortment of pretty much anything you're looking for. old straight razors, harmonicas, leather jackets, flapper hats, letterpress blocks, jewelery, SHOES, anything! it's all very reasonably priced as well.
