It is Tuesday and I am FINALLY relaxing at home (parent's house on the Oregon Coast). I have been taking time to organize all of my thoughts and pictures from ArtFiberFest to share on my blog. I must say that I had such a wonderful time having the opportunity to teach at a fiber venue was like a dream come true for me because it means that I was able to make the transition from a fine artist and painter into fiber territory- love it! The best part was meeting so many wonderful, creative and open people. I spend so much of my creative time either alone or often with people who are just not like minded- so to get to spend 5 days with individuals who love the same thing was so nice and a comfort to me!Highlights and Shout OuTs- in No Particular Order!!!
***All of my students being SOOOOOOOOOO open to my "no rules" rule and "limited direction" style of teaching.
***Watching Heather create a super cool graffiti purse complete with and ball and chain strap- LOVE IT!!!
***Getting to meet the lovely and amazing Liz- love her beautiful blog and all of her creations are ALL gorgeous eye candy!
***Watching Gail let go and have fun with paint...and even make a mess- 
*** Exploring Downtown Port Townsend
***Beach combing by myself in the wee hours of the morning.
***watching everyone go wild with spray paint and stencils
***watching the the yellow leaves fall from the trees
***Spending time having fun with Ruth Rae...I love Ruth even the the bathroom is fun with her!!!
***Listening to the haunted toilet flush in Seminar room
***Loved staying in a scaring but funky captains house! 
***Meeting Lisa Engelbrecht- she is the sweetest and most talented rebel calligrapher!!!
