We sure had some fun at Mountain Fair this year! Thanks to CCAH for putting on this fun filled weekend of dancing, food and beautiful hand crafted art work!
I had a special request from some Cecilia aka Goose and Kevin based on something they saw at the fair this weekend, to learn some mixed-media and wood techniques, so we will be doing that during Spill it Sister this week.

How to Spark!:
Our doors are always open-unless I'm with a private client or group, so we've had many spontaneous gatherings at the round table with all ages learning from one another. Mentorship is exactly what The Spark is about,,,and that concept goes both ways! As adults we forget how much we can learn from those younger than us, especially in the realm of creativity. I've learned to let go of my ego watching Gerry Michel and his band of AWESOME young artist's, draw at a high school level!!
Wander in…have a seat…pick up a brush, pen or pencil…maybe even some clay. Stay awhile…and relax in the warm nurturing environment, using your imagination and meeting new friends….
