The holidays have been a wonderful break from routine and while I miss the creative energy that flows through the Studio during my classes, I have been using this time to refresh and renew myself and the spaces around me. I think my students will be pleased.
There is something else that I think will please those of you that share my love of visual art and creative expression...an amazing art conference, Mixed Minded, will be taking place in Kitchener, Ontario from May 27 to 29, 2011 and I have been invited to be a part of it.
Imagine my surprise when I received a phone call from Karen Ellis of The Art House Studio asking me to teach at the suggestion of my friend and fellow artist, Lois Sander - I was thrilled, and then, Karen tells me, Claudine Hellmuth will also be teaching!!! Absolutely a moment when what I had put out to the Universe had come back in an even better package. My friend James would say "Gratitude rocks!".
Mixed Minded looks like it is going to be an incredible event, with 15 Sessions offered by 7 artists including Donna Funnell and Lois Sander, over 3 days. Registration is already open, so be sure and check it out.
You are so organized Sandra, I have learned a lot from what I see and use at Open Studio. Such energy you have. Can hardly wait for next Open Studio session!

ReplyDeleteQuick question - are you supplying the book used in the Art Full Journal class in Kitchener. I didn't see paper or book on the supply list.
Can't wait!!!

Hi Elaine,
ReplyDeleteI will be providing the materials for the book and we will create a simple pocket journal to hold our samples or I may just bring the completed journal along - either way, it will be provided. I can't wait either and I look forward to meeting you!
