Welcome to our (online) Holiday Open House<br />
<i><br /></i><br />
<i>I <b>love </b>spending the holidays with you! </i><br />
<br />
We have a house full today, leave your coat at the door, you will want to come inside and see who is here. If you are like me, you may want to stay on in the kitchen, the good stuff is happening in there. <br />
I am baking some of my sisters cookies, it smells like heaven's bakery! I have also set up a full bar: cocoas, coffees, and teas. You are also welcome to the mulled wine (a Swedish recipe and a keeper - details to come!)<br />
<br />
The snow is softly falling, the lights are twinkling, the music is playing our favorite holiday songs. <br />
<br />
I hope you will sit with me. Tell me all about your year, your holiday plans, your family, your sweet heart...I hoped we would have time to catch up! (please do share in our new facebook group or email, I would love to hear from you!)<br />
<br />

My sister and I have teamed up again this winter for a culinary and artistic mix of holiday pairings.<br />
<br />
<i>Yes, delicious food and playful art...what could be more fun? </i></div>
<br />
<i>Everyone loves deliciousness. </i> We crave our holiday favorites and my sister, Rhetta, has a new take on savories and sweets you will love. Crisps & cookies all ready for your kitchen studio -- and super giftable too!<br />
<br />
Do you remember her holiday biscotti from our last holiday workshop? My annual favorite!<br />

<span style="color: orange;"><i>helpful tips: </i></span><br />
<br />
Change up the colors to fit your palette for the season -- fall, holiday, winter<br />
Use them for place settings, a note to a friend, as a teacher gift (with a box of treats), neighbor gifts.<br />
<br />
Use any watercolor paper and adhere your little wreath to a card (double sided tape). <br />
Paint a larger version and frame it for a friend or your own home and heart. <br />
<br />

The holiday weeks are busy and I know how overwhelmed I can get. I am making a promise to myself to slow down each night with a little project of my own, something to calm and nurture my own heart. It isn't a grand plan to fix the hectic blur...but I know it helps me and gifts me with art I love during the holidays. <i> </i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I think of it as a precious gift to myself...and to others. Join me? </i> </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I heard the bells on Christmas Day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Their old familiar carols play</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And <b><i>Wild and Sweet </i></b>the words repeat</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of peace on earth goodwill to men...</div>
<br />
<br />
Our
workshop is also based on the hauntingly beautiful lyrics of this classic
song. Longfellow was in the midst of heartbreak and hardship when these
words spilled out of him...broken and hope filled. I love the way it touches our
bittersweet feelings of the season. It pulls us right in. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><i>For those with tender hearts this holiday...</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><i>We miss...we ache...we cry.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><i>And, we hope...we love...</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #999999;"><i>and we will find joy </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #999999;"><i>(it just happens, I promise) </i></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think we should embrace the holidays in a warm hug...together. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What do you think? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is such a gift to have you come over for a bit of early fun. I hope you are still in your pajamas and I hope you are hungry, I have a kitchen full of warm fall pumpkins -- you will soon see! (video sketch treats)</span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i><b>Heartwarming. </b></i> Yes, I love this word -- and I love all it does to my creative spirit. It is a delightful and thoughtful word to pull apart, wrap around, and let fall softly on our hearts. </span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Perhaps you remember those times when you are so caught up in the moment, laughing with that big goofy smile? (Yep, I am thinking of you-tube baby porcupine videos or the photo of Pinky lamb above) You can't help but love the moment. Those undeniably happy-laugh sounds that just spill from your chest. Ha! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We love silly moments of joy. We are made for happy hearts. We can't help but fall for the love-bomb cuteness. We delight in all that lights up our spirits. </span><br />

I will agree, the summer days are still too warm, and long, and the gardens just ripening. I know the lush gardens here are full of juicy tomatoes, fat onions, and delicious squashes. Are you finding the same? I love the beauty and feel of summer. Wildflowers. Open windows. Fuzzy peaches. The long evening walks with crickets singing, having children home, trips to farmers markets, and (can I also share...) I do love to have tan legs and pink cheeks. I do love love love summer. You, too?</div>

<br />
In my time away from doing workshops online I loved being able to sketch to my hearts content. To work alone is sometimes necessary as an artist. It really is. For me, it was a time of purpose, of gathering hope upon hope, and keeping my feet forward -- looking to the time I could jump back into a wonderful artist community. I came up with so many wonderful, new ideas and just couldn't wait a moment longer to jump back in. <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
But mostly...I really, really love you, my sweet artist friends!</div>

<br />
Hello dear friends!<br />
<i>I have missed you so much!!!</i><br />
<br />
I know it has been a long time. I have missed my time online with you! <i> I really, really have! </i> <br />
<br />
<br />
You, my sweet family of artists -- <i>that I love so much </i>-- have been such an ongoing blessing to my heart. Your compassionate words, timely letters, encouraging art, and heart-hugging prayers have touched me and my family. <i>Watching your creativity flourish has been my weekly inspiration.</i> Even if I wasn't able to participate online this past year...I could see and cheer in all of the amazing things you have done!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our artist friends are such treasures! <i>We know just what we need, don't we?</i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i> </i>...a playful sketch, a bit of paint on a fresh page, and a sip of of ginger tea? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
afternoon espressos? or fresh Italian bellinis?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And a bit of quiet time to take care of precious family, too. </div>
<br />

<br />
<br />
<i>My life this year has gifted me with a new expansive & much softer heart. </i><br />
<br />
My year-long sabbatical of caregiving -- a long and precious story I hope to be able share someday -- started with individual family challenges that compounded and became
overwhelming. Because of the cherished nature of my relationships, I
wasn't able to share my reasons for having to step away from my art
workshops and online projects. I actually thought, more than a dozen times,
that I would be able to jump back into teaching quickly and be able to do more than my daily work. Nope.
There are no easy fixes for some things. Through it all, we have worked hard as family (and support peeps!) and without realizing it, we are slowly mastering that amazing art of resilience.<br />

On the quiet days at home, I found so much joy and overwhelming peace in my art studio (at home and at the farm). I know you have experienced these moments, too. When things seem to slow down and we find ourselves happily creating out of our own hearts. Yes, it is so good. I think it has been instrumental in my own self care to remember those moments. I hope to share some of my experiences with you as I resurface in my workshops and teaching. Yes!<br />

<br />
Please, don't miss your place in this <b><i>unbelievable </i></b>experience of faith, art, and adventuring with me! <br />
<br />
I was thrilled to be able to lead an art workshop in this amazing place last year and couldn't be more blessed to be headed back in the Spring (May 2018). Small groups & big fun!!!<br />
<br />
In all of my travels, this is one of those places that takes you right back in time. It is a real life fairytale! It just puts its arms right around you (it is small enough to make you feel right at home) and captivate your heart forever. <b><i>I am in love.</i></b> The only thing that could make it even better -- is for both of us to be there! <i>Me and you!</i><br />
<br />
We will be staying in a monastery right in the middle of the city, filled with unbelievable art, views that will take your breath away and we will have our very own art studio. Also, an espresso bar, restaurants, cobblestone paths to views, and beautiful chapels within the block. The daily activities, amazing meals, local wines, espresso dates (with me), and artisan gelatos will make you swoon. <br />
<br />

morning walks, fresh lemon gelatos anytime you need one, and taking in
the unbelievable views from your balcony. And one of my favorites,
sipping espressos outside the beautiful church with the locals.
Laughing together as we make fresh pasta, art journal in cafes, drink
bellinis, and sit by the pool. Dinners are always extravagant, it is
always a visual and culinary treat. I still dream of the food!</span></span></span></div>

These winter months can be such a gift of rest, rejuvenation, and for some of us -- <b><i>hibernation.</i></b> They can also be a busy season of new projects and new art. I think it is reasonable to want a healthy mix of both, don't you? (That is why they make such darling pajamas, right? We just get so much done in them some days!) <br />

This workshop is a wild mix of favorite block art, special sketches, and inspiration from my love of the creative journey...<i>a pilgrimage of faith & art.</i><br />
<br />
It isn't necessary to have taken any previous block art or Pilgrimage courses. This is just a delightful couple of weeks to get out the bright, sparkling, and joy-filled art that our hearts need and spend a few moments together -- playfully and prayerfully investing in the art our heart's crave.<br />

Along with our original supplies (that I email you), here are a few extra things to have on hand - keep it simple: </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="color: #cc0000;">(You don't have to purchase all the supplies listed, these are simply a
guide for what is used in upcoming projects. I like to use what I have
on hand and encourage you to do the same. Be creative!) </span></span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<u>Wood blocks </u> - typically 2x4's cut in various lengths (3, 4, 5, 6
inches), a 2x6 cut into a squared shape, any other wood pieces you come
across. I cut at least a dozen, at random lengths, at a time, you may
want to start with less. Hardware stores will cut them for you, just
ask a nice looking person to help you. If you don't want to use wood
blocks you can use canvases in any size, art journal pages, or simply
sketch along with us in your sketchbook. Once you try a wood
block...you will be addicted. <i> Fair warning.</i><br />
<br />
<u>Sandpaper</u> #100<br />
<u>Sketchbook</u> (one you will use) and <u>mechanical pencils</u><br />
<u>Book paper</u>, torn from an old book<br />
Pieces of <u>colorful paper</u>. I recommend cardstock weight (heavier, thicker), but any will do.<br />
<br />
<u>Acrylic paints</u> - any colors that you love right now. Include white/cream and black to your mix.<br />
<u>Heavy body acrylic paints</u> - titanium white (golden brand is what i use) and any other colors you love the most.<br />
<u>Acrylic brushes - in assorted sizes</u>. Purchase a small inexpensive package if you need variety.<br />
<br />
<u>White gesso</u> - I love the cheap gesso (Daler Rowney)<br />
<u>Decoupage or Mod podge</u> - matte finish is my favorite<br />
<u>Neocolor ll crayons or a set of simple watercolors</u> - we use brown quite a bit.<br />
A couple sheets of 8x11 <u>hot pressed (smooth) watercolor paper</u>, you don't need an expensive brand.<br />
<br />
<u>Black sharpie fine point pen</u><br />
<u>White sharpie poster paint pen</u>, fine or medium. I have a hard time finding these outside of Amazon.com<br />
<u>Texture helps</u> - start collecting little pieces of punchinella,
sheet rock tape, or bubble wrap if you like the look of texture in your
work. (Find things around your home...be creative) </blockquote>

Nope! All of my workshops stand independently from one another. Sometimes it is fun to build upon a collection you may have started earlier, but it isn't necessary. You are always welcome to jump in and see for yourself...it is always brand new!</div>

I embrace the challenge to find witty new sketches, everything freshly painted & art sparkling new. The passionate creativity I feel each winter is such a gift. Do you feel it to? To embrace these cold dark months as our open studio time is brilliant! (for me - no yard work or lambs needing to be fed) To dig into something new and see where it goes is pure adventure. <b><i>Pure adventure! </i></b> Some of my best work is done during these cold winter months. I think the hibernation must be good for our artist's hands and hearts. A very strong cup of tea is good too!</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For me, projects like this always start with a word.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time, in this moment…it is Pilgrimage. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have talked about it so much with family and friends I think they will tell you - <i>it stole my heart and it just won’t let go</i>. <span style="color: #990000;"><b>I am a pilgrim on a mission of love. </b> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The word pilgrimage defines historical places and religious calls, stories of miraculous moments, defining choices/consequences, personal transitions in life. It is also a word that playfully whispers, </span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Let’s go…Let’s go…” </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-size: large;">O</span>ften when starting a new project, workshop, collection, I can outline the same exact routine. A silly process perhaps, but one that works wonders for me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I literally do what most of us only dream of...I drench myself in quiet. I leave all my social media behind for days and go old-school-notebook and strictly imposed simplicity. It sounds harsh doesn't it? It is like a self imposed time-out <i>that isn't punishing.</i> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Like being told to stay sitting on your mat during yoga, it is so hard to do (for me), but so nurturing. Being quiet. Calm. Focused. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Daily, <i>after caring for the needs of real life,</i> I take time to walk, sketch, and pray. I find it easier to unwind on my front porch or while walking to the blessed barnyard. I have all kinds of creatively playful projects to work through and I need to get to a place of "soft groundedness". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Inspiration grows like wildflowers when I allow this precious space and I welcome <i>every idea with equal excitement,</i> filling sketchbooks and notebook-fulls of ideas. Some of these sketchy ideas are relevant (which tells you most are sooo not), some are uber silly, and some seem to take shape as complete concepts or collections, which really helps me to stay focused! <i><b>Thank heavens!!!</b></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Many times I jump back into life full of clarity about what steps I will take next. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Sometimes I get caught up in what I am studying/reading/creating and stay focused for weeks. Perhaps too long? <i>((grinning))</i> I really do love my self motivated time-outs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

What a fun week. <i>My goodness! </i><br />
<br />
The little ones (and big ones) are back in school. The laundry pile is finally reasonable. I have photo shoots like this one (I seriously have the most fun neighbors -- just look at those cute faces), and I realized that there are loads of workshops/classes/events all coming up so soon. I better get ready! <br />
<br />
What a fun way to welcome Fall...<i><b>one of our most favorite seasons, right?</b></i><br />
<i>We need to get our sketchbooks out and get our creative season started...</i><br />
<br />
I personally also want to share all that is happening here. I do hope you can join me. Grab a pencil, I can hardly wait to show you what I have planned...<i>and to see what art we can come up with together?</i><br />

<span style="color: #f4cccc; font-size: large;">I am a collector of loves. </span><br />
<span style="color: #f4cccc; font-size: large;"><i> are you too?</i></span><br />
<br />
As a granddaughter of a generation steeped in war and sacrifice, I am humbled by the gifts that my Grandmothers continually share with me. Both have passed and both are so very missed. Their daily reminders aren't necessarily their journals or photos (though I value what has been shared with me greatly), it is actually through the things they lovingly used in life that keep me closest to them. <br />
<br />
It is what they used in their daily lives that has come to live with me: <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>handpainted benches </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>needlepointed pillows </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>gorgeous original paintings</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>tiny stitched purses </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>tattered kitchen cloths </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>candy dishes</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>a butter churn (painted hot pink)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>cream and sugars</i><br />
<i>the cutest salt & peppers</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>and their choice of colors that speak to my artist heart, too. Yes!</i></div>

As I look around me, they are everywhere-<i>here</i> with me. To have them a daily part of my life is a living memory, the story my grandmothers have left behind, <i>"Be careful with the money you have. Save and spend on the best things. Tend and mend the things you love. Create a space of beauty. Choose the things that are pretty & practical."</i> I can't say that these things were ever spoken, but the messages are clear in the sweet treasures I hold. <br />
<br />
In the time I knew my grandmothers, I was unknowingly collecting, and now cherish not only the things around me but what they remind me of...<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>To share and care for what you have.<br />Have candy or coffee at the ready.<br />To touch - hold a hand, hug, kiss your grown children.<br />To listen. They were the best listeners I have ever met.<br />& To use, repurpose, and love the simple things.</i></blockquote>
Do you feel the same way?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I am sure this is why Jeanne Oliver's latest offering really spoke to my heart, she is a loving collector of these same beautiful treasures and she is taking the time to really delve into the heart of home. I think I love that.<br />
<br />
<b>With her invitation, I want to share a course I am in love with already. <i> It is so beautiful!</i></b><br />

<i><span style="color: #999999;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">"I grew up with a large garden, morning cereal often had fresh berries from the backyard, clothes hung on the line, the sound of the sewing machine filled our home and my mom’s homemade grape juice is still one of my favorite things on earth. I have always loved home and home is the place I want others to feel loved too.</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;" /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;" /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Over the years I have also heard other women talk about things their moms or grandmothers did to make their homes special and practical. Torn knees were patched, everything was made from scratch, fresh produce was preserved for winter and someone was stitching something sweet and lovely. I think that many of us want to make sure we preserve some of our favorite memories and make them a part of own modern lives. We want to create an artisan home!</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;" /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><br style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;" /></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">When we can embrace our handmade home and see the beauty in the little things then our homemaking becomes art! It is not perfect and the beauty is actually in embracing the imperfection. It is following my Grandma Jeanne’s advice to only surround yourself with things you truly love and use. It is pulling out your prettiest things and not saving them for company but lavishing your family daily. It is not apologizing when your home is messy and inviting friends and neighbors in anyways. It is about allowing your home and gifts to be used to do something sweet in you and those around you! It is about sitting down with moms and grandmothers and grandfathers and hearing about their stories and finding your story in the midst of it. It is about passing on the best of it to our children and grandchildren.</span></span> </span></i></blockquote>

I have a few things coming up soon that I want you to know about. I will be in Italy in September (next year) and I want to make sure you are invited!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It was much more than I ever hoped it would be. <i>Italy is a gift of heart. </i> It has a richness and depth of places, times, peoples, and the most beautiful warm light that makes everything look like it is right out of a fairytale! It settles on your heart and stays with you forever (like spending a moment in heaven - I am serious). I honestly stood on the shores of Lake Como and joyfully cried,<i> it is that beautiful. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The landscapes, art, people, and daily interactions -- lavish you with color, depth, and overwhelming gratitude for those that came before us. What a wild treasure of history to experience. It is breathtaking. </div>

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It has been so fun this month, bringing sketches together and thinking of you. I always get <b>so excited</b> for summer workshops that I can hardly function as a normal person. I am sketching and imagining at the grocery store and in line at the post office (no wonder they whisper about me). There is no end to creative thought...it is everywhere! I just sketch away thinking and wondering if you will pick yellow...or pink...or my favorite blue. </span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Summer mornings (and evenings) have such beauty, don't they? It is as if we chill out and let our sweet artist hearts have a break from our stress. We are more apt to sketch on our porches, more willing to sink our toes in the grass and sand and experience the world around us. Does summer speak to you too? </span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Each morning I grab my cool drink and skip to my studio.<i> I seriously do! </i> Right now, it is filled with bright colors, fresh (and buggy) blooms, and plastered with photos and sketches of summer's most wonderful things. This is truly what I hope for you as well, an artist life that is abundantly blessed with life's amazing gifts. </span></blockquote>

<div style="text-align: center;">
For those that have taken my summertime courses, <i><b>you know the joyful mischief we get into. </b></i> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is always a treasured few weeks of playful fun together -- I never want it to end!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you haven't tried a summer workshop with me...you really should. <br />
<br />
So silly.<br />
Wonderfully simple and wildly colorful projects.<br />
Joyful messages of hope.<br />
And organic deliciousness, too.<br />
(Last years Farmer's Market was a hit!) <br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">You really can't find a more wholesome and fresh mix of fun.</span></div>
