I had a busy week last week and a very gratifying one! Last Monday I had an all day open house with Martha Richter who creates fine handcrafted jewelry and is a long time family friend, at at a beautiful home in Naples. We had a good, enthusiastic crowd visit us that day. It was a lot of holiday fun. See Martha's website: www.martharichterltd.com
I then held a 2 day workshop at the Art League of Bonita Springs Tuesday and Wednesday. I always love these workshops! We all got to know each other and, because they are also artists with their own style, we all shared our own unique artwork with each other. The women who attended where so enthusiastic about learning my technique. At times they got a bit frustrated once they discovered the patience that is required to complete a Layered Imagery (Paper Mosaic) piece. But I was determined that they leave there proud of their piece they where creating. I think I succeeded because we were all smiles and hugs at the end of the class. I congratulate them for their hard work and good spirit. It is alway hard to end a class because we feel like it has just begun. It never seems like enough time. We all wanted to stay all day but it is easy to forget, while engrossed in the creative process, that we all had a busy schedule for the rest of the day.
