ART UNRAVELED 2009

I have received a reprimand about my infrequent postings so I plan to do better. I am at Art Unraveled right now in Phoenix and having an awesome time. Yesterday I took a course title Soldering Demystified with Rebecca Brooks. She laughed that the course could be called Soldering for Brazen Hussies. :-) I learned a lot, made a fan pull, and plan to purchase a kit so I can do more soldering at home.

Today's class was Wooden Collage Vignettes with Karen Michel. AWESOME class, so much fun and walked away with art pieces I am tickled about. Hope to continue to use these tecniques and materials.

FRIENDS - So great to see AU friends I have known fro previous years. My CA buddies Angelica and Laura, Cynthia from Virginia Beach, Helen from Boston, and fellow Texans Janice and Carol. New friends Mita, Trish, Katie and more.

Oh, last night I went swimming and it was heavenly. Could see the mountains in the distance from the pool which was so warm. I'm debating now...go swim or not.

In the morning I have Sketch and Watercolor on location at the Botanical Gardens. Leave early..like 6:30 so we can get back by 10:30 or so before it gets unbearably hot. Instructor Jane LaFazio. I can't wait.
