well, as you read this i am on my way to teach at artfest! i remember last may when i received the email from teesha moore asking me to submit my teaching application. some of my past students recommended me as one of the teachers and i can’t even say how honored i am!
luckily when i got that email, i was attending the do what you love retreat and assisting flora bowley in her bloom true class in yorkshire, england (another life changing experience)… so i had plenty of lovely people around me to share in my excitement!
i’m sure i’ll have lots and lots of photos and stories to share with you when i return from owl painting at artfest next week! i’ve been so busy wrapping up big projects and getting ready for this adventure that i haven’t had a chance to post about so many wonderful things (like my studio makeover and my new series of BIG paintings)! i’m so looking forward to a slower pace in the coming weeks with a lot more painting time and a bit of story writing!
have a wonderful weekend!

Lately I’ve been going back to painting owls. For awhile I had been creating these very renaissance-style portraits with soft, realistic faces and incredible hair.
