Trying out the tulip vase I bought in Amsterdam last autumn. I like the drama created by the swoop and curls. #tulips #flowers #springtime

Took a walk through Victoria’s Beacon Hill Park and just had to get a picture of that splash of red amidst the winter landscape.

This portrait painted in 1892 by Edvard Munch has a second portrait hidden within it. On the bottom right of the sleeve he painted two figures embracing in the moonlight. The reason remains unknown. Thanks to The Observer for the source material. #munch #art #portraits

Just came across these two lovelies. I feel like they were just about to duet to Endless Love. #birds #yyj #islandlife

For my #Christmas post, I thought I’d use this photo I took of Moore’s 1983 sculpture, “Mother and Child:Hood” during my wander through #StPauls. I felt a wonderful sense of warmth and love when I first saw it. #London

Hey @museumbums.bsky.social I came across this bum at the Drawing the Italian Renaissance exhibition by Pelligrino Tibaldi (c.1548) and thought of you guys.

Over the past years I’ve written posts highlighting Canada connections in #London. Imagine how chuffed I was to come across the world time map at Piccadilly Station and see that it had its light on Victoria! #YYJ.

Lovely day for a bike ride undercover changing skies in #YYJ I’ve noted this week that no matter the weather conditions, the trails were cleared and ice free so kudos to whoever is responsible for keeping us safe. Still amazes me I can bike from DT out to Langford and be on trails 95% of the time.

Look at how the olives in my martini shine in the light of my new lamp.

Recently returned from Zurich which was a truly beautiful city. Loved the history, architecture, art and the vibe.
