Summer Doings

I spent a refreshing week last month at Jane Davies' Collage Journeys In Vermont 2013 workshop. Check out this link to see Jane's post about it. This was my second year. What a fun and relaxing way to spend a summer vacation - art and Vermont together, along with the company of some wonderful fellow students!


I came home with a lot of works in progress. These two are the closest to being done, as I see it.

Jane coached us through a creativity exercise that she calls "Big Fat Art". Here are some of mine.

Today, at home, I started some Big Fat Art on my own. Here they are, in progress:

Next month, I'll be participating in New Haven's annual City Wide Open Studios. Stay tuned for more information.

Hi Cathy.

Glad you had such a good time in Jane's class. She was on Whidbey Island in July and I got to attend her workshop. We did Big Fat as well.

I hope all is well with you.
