A beautiful day in Oliver . . yesterday. Woke up to snow . . . again. This city girl don’t do snow! However for all those amazing snow photos take them to Paul and Barb Eby for prints. OK Photo Lab at your service! 6245 Main St.

The Painted Chair is a fabulous place for cookies, tea, homemade pretzels, some styling fashions and of course . . . up cycled Painted Chairs. Maybe a dresser too.

Heather Andrews, Royal LePage Realtor, was in the house with Gallery Girlfriend while she was pampering herself. A girl deserves to pamper herself, and Beyond Bliss is the place to do it.

At the Leza Macdonald Art Gallery, the walls are bare and freshly painted waiting for  “Finding Beauty – Life in a Small Town” SOSS Senior Photography Exhibit. Opening Thursday January 18, 6 pm – 8 pm. come down and meet these young up and coming photographers.

Totally focused on their painting is the wee Arabella, 7 and her sister Marina, 12. They are enjoying private lessons at the Gallery. Check out the results.

Miss Arabella, 7

Miss Marina, 12

I love surrounding myself with children’s art. Feels warm on a snowy day!

Stay safe and warm Oliver!
