I've been moving and grooving...



grooving
did you miss me
?
I kind of forgot to mention that I was leaving town for a few days
for an art retreat
where we learned to balance feathers on the end of our noses
while dancing on one leg
~~
well
not really
but it does look like fun doesn't it
?
anyhow
I painted and made a mess and painted some more and added some glue
and a few transfers and whined when things didn't turn out
and
laughed
until my cheeks just couldn't take it any longer
~~
I'll be back soon with a few photos and a better story
I promise

  3. Now that picture is a keeper, the kind that gets passed around in emails all across the globe!
    I'm glad you had a great time, I've always wanted to go to a retreat.
    But, now that you are back, can I ask you....when you write your blog, how do you get your words centred rather than aligned at the left? I can't find an option for that, but it looks so much nicer!

  8. Oh you are too funny! An art retreat - now that sounds like something I would love to participate in. It's all such a learning process, it's hard when things don't turn out the way we want them to but the process is so necessary. Can't wait to see some of this process!
