Another year down and I am transformed. Breaking down the studio and packing up new work feels like an ending and a beginning. I have so much inspiration to process and take home to my studio. My biggest takeaway from this week is how important it is to return to the basics - in art and in everything else.
Shapes and community.
Color and farm fresh food.
Value and values.
Thank you to Lorraine Glessner and Kelly Milukas and to all the beautiful women who I worked (and laughed!) with this week. After a thoughtful showcase of our work, I said goodbye to Peter, the resident farm cat who attended all workshops this week. I stocked up on Vermont syrup, said farewell to many lovely ladies, and hit the road.
I didn’t buy THAT much syrup but was delighted by the image of a shopping cart full of it!
The entire ride home, I couldn’t help but see the landscape as shapes and shadows and can’t wait to use wax and fire to depict them.
