Upon returning home, Susan said, "It's too bad life isn't like art camp."

This is Hollis playing her violin for us one evening.

We're all looking forward to doing it again next summer.

 

A Wildacres Summer Retreat

Just returned from a great week up in Little Switzerland, North Carolina. This year I took an enameling class with Linda Darty, and it was the best! Linda is an excellent teacher and is a wealth of information. My head is still swimming with new ideas. I have wanted to take an enameling class for years, so to be able to finally take this class with Linda Darty was a dream come true. (Note: A special thanks to my friend, Pam, who switched classes with me to make this happen.)

My happy classmates.

Jean Stark taught me how to enamel with these inexpensive kilns, andI think they work just fine for small pieces of jewelry.
