Sometimes you round the corner in France and stumble upon those places that look like a page torn right out of a childhood book. Fantasy meets real life--what a delight:)! Don't you love the colors?!
Speaking of fantasy and real life....I finally got to meet and spend some real time with Leslie Saeta, my "partner in crime", best buddy, great artist, co-host on Artists Helping Artists, and now co-teacher for workshops! As you may know already, I met Leslie through art and being online a little over a year ago. We had only met in person for a quick lunch one time--but we made up for it these past few days. Leslie invited me to stay with her for our Pasadena workshop and what an incredible treat it was. Leslie is as warm as you might have suspected from reading her blog and seeing her art. Here home is truly a home--made beautiful by her presence (and that of her sons, husband and Spef the dog). We laughed, worked hard, did our radio show, cooked (I was the helper..:) for 20 wonderful artists two nights, and ended with getting a foot massage together (our feet said thank you!) I feel so blessed to have Leslie as my friend and wish for each of you those people in your life who appreciate you, help cheer you across the finish line, always make you feel better for having spent time with them, and know they genuinely are happy when good things happen to others!
I just left Leslie's this evening and am getting to hang out a few days with my one and only daughter, Desiree, in LA. I am still learning to use her mac, so I will post photos of the workshop and all of the great gals in it over the next couple of days--just as soon as I have a tutorial on how the heck to do it..:))
