I was maybe the first if not the third guest to arrive and by that time, 90% of the items were already sold!  They were beautiful!  It’s so nice to deviate a bit from all the artworks on canvas or paper and see this kind of art!  Heart2Heart loves it!

The two chairs from Art in the Park last year – not for sale!

What a cute shoe cabinet! Jia loves shoes!  I remember when we used to work together in Rustan’s as the Merchandise Manager of Ferragamo.  She fit the job so well as she loves shoes and bags and maybe anything Italian 🙂

Open the cabinet and it’s all her shoes which she painted in front – Gucci, Christian Laboutin etc etc

I was surprised to see this ( Christian Laboutin ) as I had this shoe before – we probably bought it at the same time! 🙂  and she still has hers til now

All the red dots are sold already when I arrived and I heard that when I left, everything was sold already

And I saw Jia bringing this in with her and she said it was not for sale!  It is adorable!  Those are the initials of her daughters

I heard a rumor that Dr. Cuanang asked Jia to exhibit at Pinto Gallery!! I’m looking forward to that!
