Never Cry Wolf

I went to check out BUTTONMANIA at G+ Gallery this afternoon where we had some 1″ collaged buttons on display.

The wall of many butts.

It was pretty cool to see what other artists had done.  Buttons have become such a commonplace fashion accessory and we make and see so many of our own every day, so it was interesting to see buttons used by artists as a medium and to be able to just step back for a second and appreciate them as individual pieces. My favorites were the one-of-a-kind buttons that were either hand drawn/painted or were made from an original piece of art.

Our collaged buttons!

Couldn’t leave empty handed…

Our purchses: birdies by Iris Lee
creepy/manga/monster buttons by Howie Tsui
chinese opera face by Xu Han

BUTTONMANIA will continue to run until December 27th. If you want to check it out it’s at G+ Gallery (50 Gladstone Ave, Toronto) and the gallery is open Wed-Sun (1-6pm).

ATTN: button lovers

What’s more awesome than an artist’s button show? Not much. We will be having some LTD edition collaged 1″ buttons in the show, you should check it out if you’re in/around Toronto. G+ is across the street from The Gladstone Hotel on the West side of Gladstone Ave.

That’s a preview of the collaged buttons that we will have in the show. Each one is different! Collect the whole C R Y W O L F set or you can just get your favorite button of the bunch. There will be about 50 for sale at the show @ $2 each.
