Hi there! Thanks so much for stopping by! On this blog, I hope to share some of the daily learning, growth, experimenting and sometimes, struggling, I have with this wonderful life of mine - being a full time artist and instructor.
My artistic pursuits (currently) include painting and selling my original watercolor paintings and teaching sketching on virtual location through the use of technology! Please check out www.ImaginaryTrips.com for more information.
As the days fly by, I find that art helps me to live the breadth, the width, and the depth of my life, not just the length! I do hope you'll join me on the journey!
As I was working in our yard last weekend (planting tomatoes, flowers, and some other veggies) I got to enjoy some 'outside time' and our pond that our family built. This garden class is tempting because I'd love to learn techniques to help capture our pond in an image....
But.... right now.... I better start packing for Greece!! I'm excited!!
