Jodi Ohl was here for 3 days teaching a workshop at Random Arts. Jodi stayed with me and we had such a good time, her workshops were fantastic! AND I now have one of her paintings in my studio. I'm looking forward to her next trip to the mountains. Next weekend I'll finally get to meet the talented Janice Scherer! I have one of her paintings, The Watcher, and I love having it hanging in my house.
Now my thoughts are turning to Artfest and sightseeing in WA!! So busy making plans, chatting with many friends that are attending. AND SO EXCITED to be meeting so many friends that I've made online and formed friendships with. I can hardly wait to meet Livvie, Carlanda, Jodi, Frannie Pants, Jaci, Danielle..too many people to mention. So many good artists and wonderful women! And so many good instructors. I'm taking classes from Stephanie Lee, Mary Beth Shaw and Misty Mawn! What a line up!
Today I have to finish my trades and see if I need any supplies. Tomorrow I shop!
Stay tuned for lots of photos of friends, Seattle, Fort Worden and maybe even a big stash of sea glass. I'm so lucky that I can just take off and not worry about anything at home! Bob and Daisy will take care of this Fort! :-D
Next month is busy too..I'll tell you all about that when I get home from ARTFEST! And one last photo...a WIP..I still have a lot to do but I'll share anyhow.
I'll see many of you soon! If we haven't swapped cell phone numbers just message me.
Have a wonderful spring and I'll be posting just as soon as I get home! My mind will be bursting with new techniques and my heart will be exploding with friendships. XOXO

have fun on your adventure, phyllis.....my dad lived in washington and i loved it when i visited..... ;-)
I loved this blog, and not because you mentioned me or shared my art. I could feel your excitement and enthusiasm and felt a connection to your world as you talked about the friends you'll meet (jealous) and your gratitude for Bob (jealous) and shopping for art supplies (jealous again)! You are such an inspiration and I absolutely love your new piece, WIP. You really should give it a name.
I can't wait to see you on Friday, give you a hug, have coffee with you and finally meet in person. Love you Petie!

I do love the script font ... for other "riper" ladies like myself, you can CTRL and + three or four times to make it larger.
