ART and SOUL is over, it was my first experience at one. I had a delightful time. First of all I got to spend time with my sister, something I love to do and second I got to take a three day class from Nina Bagley and spend time with her something I love to do. It was win win for me. Class was great, Nina taught all kinds of techniques from wire wrapping to resin, we drilled holes in stones, made cloth beads and wire beads, information went on and on over and out of my head. But I did retain enough to complete a necklace and one that I was pleased with. In my photos you will see where I still need to practice with stamping. I did miss being out of doors since the event was held at the Embassy Suite right at the airport and there was no "outdoors" to go to but we were very busy all of the time and hardly missed it. I stayed an extra day and helped my sister with Vendor night when the artist sell their wares it is a busy and crazy time, we look a little shell shocked in the photo! It was a pleasure to put our feet up that last night with our pjs on and order room service a great way to end a good time together.
Looks like so much fun!!! One can tell just by the photo that you two are a force to be reckoned with! Ha! Glad you had a great time! And your necklace is very cool!!!
I love your necklace! I know what you mean though, I have some of those stamps and thought it would be easy, but I still can't get stamping on metal right! I really like how yours turned out. Looks like a fun time, thanks for sharing!
Lorrie It was so fun to meet you at art and soul- you are as sweet in person as I knew you would be. You are a talented girl and should be SO proud of the beautiful art you created- your necklace is wonderful!
Looks and sounds as though you had a great time. Sister time is so very special...so glad you had time with your sweet sis. Love your necklace....you learned so much. And I think your metal stamping lends charm to your piece. Hugs Diana
I live in the Calif. east bay area with my 2 dogs Lily and Penny and and My husband Bruce. When "playing" I journal, do mixed media art and spend weekends on our Airstream "Bambi .
Looks like a wonderful event. Glad you had a good time. My allergies kicked in big time so I got a lot of antihistamine induced rest....
