2019 travels

I am in Scotland and loving it.  ....

but this year started out with travels to Oaxaca. Then last month to Italy. I am so lucky to get to travel like this.
  I have been trying to blog for awhile but google has taken over blogger I guess and I could not post! So I am giving it a try again.

Saying good bye to 2016

...and I have to say it was not my favorite year.  I am still feeling ashamed and scared to know what the people around me really value...anyway I am going into 2017 with unless obligations on me which will free me up for more art.  I am planning lots of new directions to try and I am excited to just have more time for the studio.  I am posting some mixed media pieces mostly from 2016.   Expect to see more soon....

Did I tell you I went to Vermont?

It was a really fun trip. 

Went to the Surtex show and saw a few sites in NYC...Purl, ABC Carpet, Gudrun and had great pizza at Champions in SoHo. Rode in taxis and subways and saw famous building.  Grand Central was fascinating!  Then back to Tarrytown and on to Arlington, Vermont to the Meleen and Charlotte Vermont Getaway ...with a trip to the Wing and Prayer Farm so everyone can cuddle a lamb.

Pam was my travel buddy and Charlotte was our hostess.

Vermont was beautiful and everyone was so friendly and interesting.  It was great to see new places and so relaxing to have Meleen prepare such awesome meals.  She is such a good cook and hostess.  Fun to peek into life in the East.  Charlotte is in the arms of her girls and great friends with history all around her.  I loved every minute....
