What a fantastic experience! It never ceases to amaze me how much I get out of giving. I know this is not a new concept. I know each of you reading this identify with what I am saying or you probably wouldn’t be here reading me in the first place! 🙂

But just the same, I have to go off on how amazing of a weekend I had in Colorado at ArtistsNook http://www.theartistsnook.net/. It would’ve been enough just to connect with the venue host; it would’ve been enough to simply identify with one workshop participant; it would’ve been enough to have everything flow remarkably well this first time in shipping supplies and materials. But guess what?! All these things occurred this past weekend and more~
I am gifted by my passion to teach and share. I am regifted in the bounce-back joy this brings and the learning I run into from each workshop I conduct. It is a huge thing to affirm life lived through a passionate path 🙂

Colorado was beautiful-hitting a gorgeous 75 plus degrees over the time I was there. Christine Webb is a generous and caring host who went above and beyond to make this time exceptional. The participants came from far and wide to not only indulge in encaustic, but to unwittingly give me the wherewith all to forge ahead in my determination to make a career of teaching, sharing, and experimenting in all things encaustic. Kudos to the glorious Colorado front range and double kudos to the 14 people joined with me in a weekend of wax~ in love. trish.
