Art therapy

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Fishbowl patrons|Ottawa

After a long and stressful work week it feels pretty good to throw paint on a clean white piece of canvas.

My friend Julie invited me to attend her 40th birthday celebrations at 4Cats Arts Studio in Hintonburg (who also happens to be a Fishbowl patron). Emma and Sarah have been to a bunch of workshops and parties at 4Cats so I already knew I could expect some quality arting around time… but to summarize: it was a hoot. You can read more about it on Julie’s blog.

That sounds like a lot of fun. What a great way to celebrate. I just booked The Peach’s birthday party at 4 Cats.

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Sunny who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. During the day I work as a freelance writer. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.
