I rave about Julie and Chis and I am constantly bugging them to design a tee shirt that I can get through Cafe Press.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And so I want all of you to know that they're offering a chance for someone to win all those wonderful classes I've taken AS WELL AS all of their upcoming classes, for ever! YOU need to go, pick a class and dive in - the water is beyond divine! Art is the source of long and happy lives, you know, and Julie and Chris will help you do it in glorious color.<br />
<br />
You'll be glad you did!<br />

How things work in a lab setting or controlled environment isn't helpful to me - Hootenanny Hollow, with 4 humans and 5 furkids (How in the world did we end up with 300+ pounds of rescued dogs? That story at a later date!) is always barely controlled chaos.</g></http:><br />

Today's to-do list: learn about labels when making blog posts and pack for my retreat at Ocean City MD tomorrow. <a href="http://www.needlearts-adventures.com/Welcome.html">Needlearts Adventures - not just for sewing!</a> is the website - join us in the fall! Or heck, stop by and say Hi this weekend! <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Thank you big time to Jenny and Lisa Pavelka for encouraging me to learn, try, and DO! Art is just an idea until you make it!<br />
