A Merry Yeti Christmas

Wandering the streets with two of my teenaged cousins this afternoon, I ducked into Narwhal Art Projects on Queen and picked up this little guy for my tiny prized objects collection.

I was tempted by Sonja Ahlers' new batch of sweater bunnies (I've got a sweet little lilac one, thanks to an old roommate) and her new book, The Selves, but instead found myself drawn to this heartwarming scene. It's a small Yeti family celebrating the season with a snowball fight, courtesy of Jennie Suddick. The image does it no justice, but you get the idea. In addition to her solo work, Suddick is one third of the group responsible for "Cry School Yearbook" (one of Nuit Blanche's greatest participatory successes thus far, IMHO). Check out her website to see more enclosed treasures.
