FOR DEAR GRACE

I know I've probably lost quite a few of you in my blog audience 
because I haven't been posting much about my art students from the past two years.

I haven't quite figured out my rational for this yet,
other then I'm trying very hard to find a new path/journey in this new retirement phase of my life.
I was getting closer until this Corona Virus showed up.  
And now with all this time on my hands,
 I find I'm also having a hard time focusing and disciplining myself to post.
Mostly I've been outside,
 gardening and walking, 
then inside taking online classes in watercolor and eco-dyeing/slow stitch with India Flint.
At night I'm cooking (every nite which I thought I'd never do again),
 slow stitching and knitting.
And in between living vicariously thru you my blogger friends and the lovely work you are doing.

Many of my ex-students have been reaching out to me with work they are doing or had been doing
 in art school,
or the crafts they are getting back into during this pandemic
which makes me incredibly happy.

I was really excited when 2018 Alumni Sarah Oh sent me this link (below).
Grace, I think you will really enjoy seeing Sarah and what she's up to at Art Center in Pasadena.
She was interviewed by an LA magazine called Voyage LA.
I couldn't be more thrilled for her.
I hope Grace you get a chance to check it out.
I know you were one of her biggest fans.

    1. She realy is an incredible talent Liz, and it just flows so easily out of her. I call it a gift. Art can be taught; design, drawing, painting and so forth, but not many people I have taught have this innate gift. I love that she continues to use it and move forward with it, and glad you you be one of her many followers. xoxox
