Getting Ready




I've been following my list and packing my supplies for my artful journey adventure. I leave Sunday for a 3 day workshop with DJ Pettit learning her book making technique. She also will have photos transfered onto fabric and will teach us how to paint them, other painting techniques will be taught also. If you go to her blog you will see examples of the book and her work it is wonderful. Gentle Whispering Hues. An artful journey is organized by Cindy O'Leary and I attended last Feb. I had a wonderful time and saw DJs work then. It was at that time that I decided I had to take a work shop of hers. I'm looking forward to spending 3 days with creative women in a lovely place surrounded by nature and open space. It will be good for my soul.

  8. Its a good time to go and focus on different things. I hope you enjoy it, and find yourself thinking of something 'other'.
    I can remember how Willow was all I thought about all the time, then not absolutely all the time, and eventually not even most of the time. But now, just sometimes... when I suddenly see a photograph it hurts still.
