Violet – Studio Photographer & Artist

So today I saw a guy walking along with a empty tray of food at the Eau Claire Market. I figured, this guy can’t be too busy, so I asked him if he would be interested in being on the blog. After I told him about it he informed me that he had a studio in the building and told me the girl there would probably be into it. Off Yoshi went to dispose of his empty tray and away I went to meet this girl.

In the studio I found a very cool and easy going girl named Violet. I told her Yoshi had sent me and explained to her about the blog. To no surprise she was into it :) Here is what Violet had to say about Calgary.

The music scene and the economy.

I do, it’s pretty fun!

4. What is it about Calgary that you like?
Everyday is a new adventure here.

5. What do you like to do for fun?
I do art and music and a lot of different things. I was tie-dyeing and making music. We have different cook off’s, gingerbread making parties. Lots of things, my friends are musical. Art days and I have a few different photography jobs.
Rob: Well ya, I’m standing here in a studio with you (laughter).
Violet: It’s pretty fun.
Rob: Ya, we have things in common.

6. If you had to describe Calgary to some one, what would you say?
Hmmm, (laughter) I’m not sure, I would say that it’s like (pause), Toronto but with a home town feel.

7. Have you ever ridden a horse?
Ya lots, but not here (laughter)

8. Anything you’d like to add? Website or anything?
My website? Sure, you can find me on facebook at Vybe Visuals or google Violet Brown and you’ll find me.

* Thank you Yoshi and Violet for being so cool! Had a fun time talking shop in the studio with you guys.

  1. Well how cute is she? You’re on a real adventure, I’d be to chicken to follow strangers to their ‘studio’. I didn’t realize there was a big music scene in Calgary, mind you I’m past my ‘pub’ days…I’m recording SNL tonight, the Lumineers are on, Wa-who, (or should I say Ho-Hey) I love them.

  2. Rob, love this lot of bit of color. I’ve thought of doing something similar to what you’re doing here. The trouble with that is how many people in Latin American hideouts are hiding from something…so many of them have something to lose by foregoing their anonymity. Hmmmmm….
    Keep up the good work.
    Later

    • Thank you very much! I have really been enjoying the project and meeting new people. I can understand your reluctancy regarding approaching some people in your area haha ;)

  3. Violet is beautiful. I checked out the link to her art website, and I think her art and photography are beautiful too! Nice to see someone young interviewed, and get their perspective .
