Have you gone to see Paul Ygartua's artwork at Westminster Centre yet?

It's a striking acrylic painting aptly named "City of New Westminster." This 48" x 84" artwork captures the vibrant skyline and waterfront of New Westminster.

Known internationally for monumental murals and expressive palette-knife work, Ygartua brings his signature energy to the Fraser River waterfront, portraying the city’s towers, bridges, and mountains in a sweeping panoramic composition. “New Westminster inspired me to search for a beautiful representation of the city in a three-dimensional exposure of its elegance and space—where the mountains, the river, and the city meet,” said Ygartua.

Is it weird to dip your chicken strips into some vanilla soft serve? That's what DQ is suggesting with their FlameThrower Chicken Strips. They actually pack some heat and the soft serve helps cool it down. We all dip our French fries in soft serve anyway, why not some spicy chicken strips?! Would you try it?
