Paint & Sip at Rocky Mountain Flatbread + GIVEAWAY

Last night, I enjoyed a Paint & Sip media event at the Rocky Mountain Flatbread in Kitsilano featuring BC artist Tara Higgins.  Tara Higgins’ work has appeared internationally in magazines, newspapers and television and is hung in private and corporate collections around the globe.  Her bold brush strokes and intuitive sense of colour allow her paintings to become striking impressions of the unrefined, richly textured landscapes that inspire her.  Tara is in town showcasing her paintings at Art! Vancouver and she gave attendees the step by step proccess to create a birch tree canvas.

Guests also sipped on handcrafted cocktails (like Triple Berry Mojiti & Shaken Margaria) from Rocky Mountain Flatbread’s new Spring menu.  We also tasted some of their items like artisan pizzas, salads, and pastas including the Spring Green Salad, ​​Bacon & Snap Pea Pasta and Tequila Cod and Shrimp Pizza.  I’ve always been a fan of their pizzas but their Bacon & Snap Pea Pasta was super tasty!
