I am a self taught mixed media artist and instructor living in Virginia with my Husband and our family of fur babies. I love all things vintage and strive to use those discarded bits of artistic flotsam and jetsum in my creations. I also love finding those treasures that others can use to feather their souls and their nests so please check out my Etsy Shop as well. Thank you for stopping by.

Registration is now open for all of these fabulous retreats and workshops are filling swiftly. Our theme for 2013 is ART IS...LIFE. We are thrilled to introduce some new activities and opportunities at each venue. Special guests Ricë Freeman-Zachery and her wonderful Earl will be joining us in Nashville, Tracy and Teesha Moore will get those creative juices going in Petaluma, while the vivacious Melissa Bolton and Barbara Kessler will be back in Stamford.
Art is...ALL INCLUSIVE...This means that EVERY DAY you attend Art is...You, you will TAKE FLIGHT in a workshop of choice PLUS
participate in a daily morning inspirational sessions
enjoy coffee and tea at different times of the day
sit down to a huge buffet luncheon with your friends
take part in fun and artistic events in the evening
receive treats and gifts from many of our faculty, vendors and sponsors
enjoy handmade gifts from Ellen and Sallianne and so much more.
Why is Art is You so great? I could go on and on, but the main reason I love this retreat is that Art is You is an amazingly professional event, that cares about each and every instructor and student as if they were family. Oh?and Sal and Ellen make sure I have a martini waiting for me after each class (they actually don't, but I thought I'd thought I'd put it out there as a suggestion).Michael deMeng
Artists across the country are waking up to the power of each other, coming together. Be a part of the Art is...You movement!
Oh, the Nashville retreat is only a few hours away! I'd love to sign up but we will most likely be in the midst of renovations. Have fun!
