It's been a long time

[Cynthia Daniel]

Sounds like you've made some good career moves in your life! Congratulations on having the gumption to take on such big changes.

I've heard nothing but raves about Marvin's workshops.

Thank you Alexandra and Cynthia. I am learning so much, realizing that it takes a long time to build the experience to fill up workshop space, the artists I want to come to Atlanta are the best and so they are booked way ahead, some into late 2008. But Marvin, his classes sell out almost immediately, I guess I thought all the big names would!

Being in Marvin's class for two days I was suprised at how easily the painting flowed and I was thrilled. My painting felt stilted since relocating and the stress of it.

I don't know about you, and I should start a string in the Cafe, but I find I have to work at GETTING in the flow, but once I am there, it is heaven. When one has to work full time, as many of us do, the discipline is difficult for the fatigue.

Pat,

A beautiful substantial head. Painting from life is addicting.

I am glad to hear from you and your move sounds like a successful one.
