Saturday I leave for the Island.

One solid week...no children...no TV.  Cells phones don't work there. I will even forgo the news...the world will survive, and I will be one with the earth.

The sun on my back, the wind in my face, paint brush in hand.

I get to do.

My passion. Paint the landscape from sunrise to sunset.

Yes. this retreat includes time for catching up with old friends and meeting new ones painting all day... stories, great food and wine at night.

I am so looking forward to this...it is... all encompassing and it will nurture my creativity for a year.

To a tiny island in Lake Michigan. Where I speak to the creator... and get answers...where all five senses are filled at once, and I get the chance to interpret this…in  paintings!

No news next week I will be...gone painting!
