The Setting.........Haystack Mountain School of Crafts

So as my friends are headed to Haystack the end of August..........

I wander there with these memories.........

en Joy........

So my friends......breathe deep the salty air.......

and suck on a lobster for ME!

Human Marks.......Dorothy Caldwell...........

With so much going on here.......later on that......I've little time to post.......however........prompted by India Flint's announcement of Dorothy's class in Brisbane at our friend Roz's beautiful setting.......I was reminded of two things........My amazing experience attending a workshop titled 'Human Marks' with Dorothy......and it's location........Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in Deer Isle, Maine.

Soooooooooooooo..........as we all do have trouble editing these workshop photos, I'm going to give it a try.......and then divide it by two........the amazing content of Dorothy's class (and it was 2 weeks.....of that)....and the setting (next post)...... the amazingly beautiful Haystack..........

Here goes.........

Our Classroom at Haystack

Dorothy's 'Board'

Perusing books for Inspiration

Don't ask.........really don't........

My Sample Board ....just a start and one of MANY techniques Dorothy shares

Workspace Portraits

A gift for Dorothy.....

From a really great gang o' mark makers.....

Gosh we had fun!

Full Circle................

And to continue my Summer 'back' Dreaming...........

My thoughts went to the next delicious workshop I attended last summer with India Flint from down under at wonder filled Shakerag (pronounced Shake Rag) on the mountain with Angels in Sewanee, Tennessee.......

Where we.............OK, I..........

Became more centered on this earth.........







And now that I'm looking back, I'm wondering if this was the beginning of a good year, or the end of a good one..........and the beginning of another?  And I'm thinking now................

My years begin in June........

And that means ........I have more goodness to look forward to in this fabulous one!

And OH!  Ms. Flint is teaching at Haystack this summer...............this one is sure to be popular and what an incredible venue!
