It was a great weekend, full of creativity. My Creative Spark Session at Keizer Art Association blew my socks off with their creativity. They worked very hard and were so receptive to the exercises I put them through. They were true explorers in every sense of the word. It is always a challenge to meet everyone where they are on the journey, beginners and more advanced painters alike. This group was so eager that I really enjoyed the process. I’m looking forward to seeing their successes in the future!

To top it off, I enjoyed a fun ‘Party with the Artists’ at the World Forestry Center for the Sitka Invitational. I met many artists whose names I recognized and saw some stunning artwork. It was difficult to pick favorites, there was so much wonderful artwork.
