It's late and it's been a super busy day. Our yard sale Sunday has
left the house in some chaos -- manageable, but still time
consuming. Some of the beautiful fabric that we sold as part
of the yard sale, came from the collection of this amazing
vintage fabric expert -- Jan Marriott. And my portrait of Jan
brings back memories of seeing her every weekend at the
Brickworks market. Currently she mostly sells online.
Here's what I said in a former post:
"Looking through my website, I saw this painting -- a
portrait of Jan Marriott, a woman who knows
everything about vintage fabric. She now mostly
sells online, but I met her when she was selling at the
Brickworks market in Toronto. The portrait shows Jan
in that setting with quilts behind her, and beautiful fabrics
on the table in front of her. Jan is a wonderful person, and
kind friend. Many of the beautiful things in my house came
from her collections.
I’m so happy that I was asked to paint this painting, and
that Jan liked it, and still uses it as her profile image."
Have a loving your life day!
