    I Had a Total Blast

    2013 SKB Workshop in Dubois WY Wyoming was everything I had hoped it would be and more!   A very special photo of me receiving a 2nd Place Award Ribbon in Water Colour from Sir John Seerey-Lester (sigh).  He told me that my painting was really a lovely little piece! I so love meeting my friends from Art Colony Blog in person and getting to know them!  We had so much fun. We created so many memories and have the photos to prove it!  We have photos with ourselves with an amazing group of famous artists..Robert Bateman, Morten Solberg, Greg Beecham, Sir John Seerey-Lester and his wife Suzy, Carl Purcell…

Adding to the excitement that I plan to meet up with a group of women that I only know online! Additionally we all plan on visiting Yellowstone National…
