I spent a glorious five-days in Hampton at the Art & Soul event, completely awed by the talent and stories of dozens of amazing women! I am “finding my voice” as they say in art. I made a brown bag book, started two altered book journals in my Traci Bunkers class (she’s incredible) and learned about making your own “graffiti book” with Traci Bautista. I also collaged a cute little birdhouse and it’s REALLY nice.
They have these wonderful retreats three times a year California, Italy and Virginia.
More on that later……..
Yesterday I was in Tuesday Morning and saw COPIES of the beautiful angel sculpture that was in my yard at the store in Cville, VA for a season…..she is beautiful…..there were 3 left. It’s the TM on Pantops. $129 I think — that is below the wholesale price I paid!!!!! You better run.
I’m rushing to pack for my trip to Philadelphia to see my son, Charles. He works at UPenn and is a performing songwriter….we have always enjoyed each other’s company so we are having a “Mother Daughter Weekend”! Isn’t that cute? His girlfriend is in San Francisco at an art workshop and I’ll be able to spoil him lovingly. I hope everyone has a HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! See you soon.
