A crazy ride…

Well, the last few weeks have gone by in a whirlwind. I was blessed to teach at Papirfest in Stavanger, Norway, Art From the Heart in Harrogate, England, and De Craftorij in Ede, Holland. I was home for 2 days and then left again to teach at Donna Downey Studios in North Carolina.

I love teaching. I love sharing what I do. I hope that comes through when you take a class with me. The artists in my classes have been truly fabulous! It's a privilege to watch them learn and create art.

I'm rubbish at teaching and taking pictures at the same time…so if you have any pictures of any of these events, email me and I'll post a few of them!

My hubs and fellas met me in the UK for a a few days. England has something we don't have here in Phoenix, and that is called weather! ha. Mother Nature still thought it was winter time, so we had lots of cold temps and snow. That didn't dampen our fun, though! Our friends, dismayed at our Arizona clothing, loaned us fleeces to go under our jackets. And we had to buy wellies to keep out the slush and snow.

Here's a fun comparison. I took this first photo in 2007:

I love being with my family. They rock.
