Could it be that a month has passed since my last post?!?! Both at home and away, July was filled with artistic adventure for me. One of the highlights of the month was a trip to
CREATE Mixed Media Retreat in Somerset, New Jersey.

texture plates by "Spellbinders".
I'm looking forward to sharing
all that I've been creating
using these same tools. |
This was my second year in attendance at The Retreat. Last year I tagged along with my pal, and amazing mixed media artist,
Jodi Ohl. She was teaching a variety of classes, and I appointed myself as her personal assistant for the week. [Nice work if you can get it! ;-) ] This year I also decided to share my overabundant collection of supplies and my work as a vendor at The Artists' Faire there.
What a wonderful experience! I'm still floating on the memories. The creative community is filled-to-overflowing with kind, talented, generous, and funny women and men. I'm grateful to count them among my friends, and I treasure every moment that we share.
