Sandcastle Sirens: We're so excited!

My artist professional background is in Illustration, and I have 30 years experience in that field as a freelance artist and in house artist for Hallmark Cards inc. When not illustrating I have always been drawn to the arts and crafts field. I have shown my work in galleries and I also have professional training in fine metal smithing and hence I love the process of adding detail to my work. I love to take classes to learn new things and love to teach as the joy of seeing a person move out of the stress of daily living ,to spending several hours caught up in the relaxing moment of creating, is a rewarding experience . You also have an opportunity as a teacher to learn your self as everyone's creative approach is unique. My approach to my work has always been whimsical in design with the element of sophistication in finishing techniques.

We're so excited!

In nearly a month, the Sandcastle Sirens weekend will be upon us! It's so exciting and there is so much in store.

The artistic retreat will be so much fun - I can't wait to take Julie's classes and be surrounded by inspiration. I'm also really excited to see the vendor sale on Sunday. Deb Hodge from Breathing Beside Us has been organizing the Marché Dans Le Jardin, check out these great postcards she's created! I love them!

I've posted some info on the right about the garden market, however Deb has created an informational blog for it - click here to visit!

"My head is still spinning from the whole event and I am so inspired with the techniques I learned in the classes."
-Jackie

"...what a wonderful weekend I had in the company of you and so many wonderful people. It was what I needed to get me inspired once again."
-Sandra

"I think I will be smiling (you know, that funny little pleased smile where the corners of your mouth turn up ever so slightly...a pleased with life sort-of-smile?) for a very long time every time I think of this most marvelous adventure."
-Sharon

"When we came home that afternoon, we both felt relaxed, as if we had gone away to rest... in reality we had only driven 20 minutes or so from our home, and yet the ambiance of the retreat had a very lasting and calming effect on us."
-Maryam & David

Marché Dans Le Jardin, our beachside market in the garden, will take place on Sunday afternoon from 1:30pm to 6:00pm.
