Asilomar Art & Soul Retreat

Along 17 Mile Drive


I'm home and have had some time to finish up some of the projects that I had started at Art & Soul. I took three amazing classes with Richard Salley and learned so many new techniques. I feel sooo inspired, have many new ideas and I can't wait to get started ! Asilomar Conference Grounds is located in Pacific Grove, California, truly a beautiful setting to get the creative juices flowing. I totally enjoyed the time I spent with two of my home town friends and visiting with many new acquaintances. Hope to see you all again, on this artful journey!

Happiness

The sum of happiness is made up of a thousand details. A little kindness done one less fortunate gives the heart a beat of pleasure that no millinery or laces or jewels can possibly inspire.
To overcome prejudice is more satisfying than a ten-course dinner.
To subdue a difficulty and smother a selfish disire is to become strong and splendid.
If life is worth living at all, it is worth living in a state of progress and improvement.
If we moan and groan, filling the air with dissatisfaction and gloom, we can scarcely hope to partake of much contentment.
All you need is a good thump on the back by some cheerful soul who has faith in you, and promise to yourself that you will face your work and your worries cheerfully,-(Selected)
